Sustainable food purchases
Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies (TSUOS) promotes sustainable and responsible food procurement through its student restaurant and campus buffets. Food service providers purchase a significant proportion of food products from local producers, suppliers, supermarkets and traditional markets, in accordance with the university’s sustainable procurement principles. This approach supports the use of fresh and locally sourced food products while contributing to local economic development and reducing the environmental impacts associated with longer-distance transportation of food.
The restaurant has established partnerships with several local producers, including “UzRice Guliston Agro Group Cluster LLC”, Agro-Food Partner, and Spice Expert (spiceexpert.uz). In addition, other food products are regularly purchased from local supermarkets such as Korzinka, Havas, and Baraka, as well as from traditional bazaars like Alay and Chorsu.
By prioritizing these local and sustainable sources, TSUOS ensures that its campus dining services align with the principles of sustainable consumption, support for local businesses, and community well-being, thereby contributing to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.
