Zambrero takes Plate 4 Plate Day global with 470,000 life saving meals packed in four hours!
October 2023: SYDNEY: Zambrero, Australia’s largest Mexican quick-service restaurant group, reached another major milestone following their global Plate 4 Plate Day event, packing over 470,000 meals to help end world hunger.
By Friday 13 of October, 2,009 volunteers registered around Australia and Ireland to help pack meals for those in need. Together, working closely with distribution partner Rise Against Hunger, our generous participants were able to prepare a grand total of 470,000 lifesaving meals for distribution.
“Thank you to those that attended our annual meal packing event. Our Zam Fam came together and packed an impactful 470,000 meals. The dedication from the communities across Australia and Ireland, our largest growth market, really is a testament to the importance of events like these” says Matthew Kenny, CEO, Zambrero Australia.
“Paired with our double donations across our restaurants throughout the day, we truly have made a difference to those in need, with 72.3 million meals donated since the Plate 4 Plate initiative's inception” Kenny adds.
Plate 4 Plate has created a global movement to end hunger, mobilising Mexican food lovers across Australia and the globe to give back, with every regular or big burrito, bowl, retail item or kids Zam Box purchased at Zambrero restaurants across the globe resulting in a meal provided to someone in need.
“We really must take a moment to appreciate all the hard work and what has been achieved to date, thanks to Aussies’ generosity with their time across the country - each and every volunteer has played a crucial role in helping end world hunger. Since Plate 4 Plate was created, our goal has been to bring people together to help those in need. With every meal donated, we are doing just that ” says Rick Kearney, CEO, Rise Against Hunger.
As Zambrero continues to expand their restaurant network in both Australia and overseas, with a global network of over 265 quick-service restaurants, Plate 4 Plate will continue to play a core role in driving the business at scale, with a collective determination to reach the goal of 1 billion meals donated.
