Stater Bros Markets: As Southern California’s largest privately owned Supermarket Chain, Stater Bros. and the 18,000 members of the Stater Bros. Supermarket Family are committed to protecting and preserving our Planet Earth. For the second year in a row (2010 and 2011), Stater Bros. received a Waste Reduction Award for its many environmentally friendly programs from California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle). In total, Stater Bros. eliminated 125,780,911 pounds of waste from landfills in 2011, including the company’s “Green Waste” Composting Program which removes over 40 million pounds of waste from landfills each year. Other notable green programs include recycling cardboard (over 70 million pounds from landfills per year), recycling sustainable rendering products (over 8 million pounds from landfills per year), donating food to local food banks (over 3 million pounds from landfills per year), and recycling plastic bags (over 2.7 million pounds from landfills per year). In addition, the company’s weekly ad is printed on recycled paper, and Stater Bros. participates in California’s Voluntary Demand Response Program to reduce energy consumption at store level when demand is high. Stater Bros. is also very proud of a unique public-private partnership between Stater Bros., California State Parks and Coca-Cola Refreshments, which has raised over $1.8 million for state parks in three years. As a result, over one million trees are being planted at state parks that had devastating wildfires in recent years, over 5 million feet of state beaches are receiving much needed cleanup and restoration, and all 750,000 acres of Southern California State Parks will receive some type of preservation.
