Only a handful of Burger King restaurants in New Jersey are taking the environmentally-friendly approach to food packaging under a program introduced in 2020.
The fast-food company recently partnered with global reuse platform Loop to limit the amount of waste created by Burger King’s traditional packaging, according to a press release.
New Jersey has over 200 Burger King locations, but it’s unknown whether others will introduce the reusable packaging.
The five participating New Jersey locations are Bayonne at 1088 Broadway, Clark at 118 Central Ave., East Brunswick at 1022 Route 18, Harrison at 751 Harrison Ave., Maplewood at 1833 Springfield Ave.
Customers at these five spots can purchase sandwiches, soft drinks, and coffee in reusable packaging.
