Read about how we’ve helped our customers reduce plastic waste.
The Rees Hotel
The Rees Hotel Queenstown is an iconic five-star hotel sitting on the banks of Lake Wakatipu.
"We chose Spout as our milk supplier because they ticked all the boxes – a local farm, fantastic milk, bulk supply to reduce packaging and storage, and reliable deliveries. Spout has been a great asset to our business.
The milk tastes just like it did when I was young, and knowing there’s no packaging going to landfill is a huge plus. Our guests regularly compliment the taste, whether they're enjoying coffee or cereal. I’d highly recommend Spout to any business – you should already have one! It's wonderful to support a local farm and a local startup, and keeping things local is a priority for us” - Mark Rose, Chief Executive Officer.
Te Pae
Te Pae Christchurch is New Zealand's premium meetings and events venue, in the heart of the South Island.
“At Te Pae Christchurch, sustainability is at the core of everything we do. We are constantly seeking innovative ways to reduce our environmental impact, and partnering with Spout Milk for our coffee carts has been a game-changer. In our first year alone, we’ve eliminated nearly 2,500 two-litre plastic milk bottles from our waste stream. The fact that their milk is sourced from a local Canterbury farm only strengthens our commitment to supporting local producers. Sustainable practices are no longer just a nice-to-have in the events industry; they’re an expectation. The story behind Spout has been incredibly well received by both our clients and guests.
By making the move to Spout , businesses can take that small step toward positive change. They offer a premium product, and that one small action contributes to a better world. We’re proud to partner with Spout and look forward to another successful year of working together” - Darren Tait, Director of Culinary Services.
The Hokitika Sandwich Company
Christchurch Branch
We've been using Spout Milk from day one. since opening our Christchurch location in 2021, and I can honestly say we’d never consider switching. As a café with limited storage, the keg system from Spout has been a perfect solution, dramatically reducing our plastic waste.
We've even had tutors from across the road bring their students in to learn about sustainability and use Spout as an example. They also mention how much they can taste the difference in the freshness of the milk we use, which is always a great compliment. What sets Spout apart for me is its smooth, creamy texture and how easy it is to pour. It’s richer and more nourishing than any milk I’ve used before. And beyond the product itself, the communication with the Spout team is fantastic. Nick is always available and more than happy to help with any questions or changes.
For us, the sustainability of Spout is a huge benefit. We’re proud to represent a product that aligns with our values of creating a more sustainable future. It’s a simple idea that makes sense, especially when you think back to the days when glass milk bottles were collected from doorsteps. The ease of ordering is another bonus. We have a standing order and if anything changes, I can just send Nick a quick text. Having worked in hospitality for 15 years and made countless coffees, I can confidently say Spout is hands down the best milk I’ve ever used. It's the perfect combination of quality, sustainability, and convenience." - Elinor Bain, Manager.
