Restaurants in Seoul’s Gangnam district will conduct trials for using multi-use stainless steel containers for food deliveries to eliminate waste brought by single-use plastic packages.
To avail of 'multi-use boxes,' consumers should specify it upon ordering food at some 60 restaurants in the district using the delivery app Yogiyo.
After ordering online, Yogiyo will send the food on multi-use boxes on the doorstep.
By scanning a QR code printed on the multi-use container with a smartphone camera, consumers would get to a website for returning it.
A professional cleaning company will then pick the empty steel containers, wash and sterilize them, and return them to the restaurant.
