New Regulations: Chicken Republic Asks Customers to Bring Containers After Lagos Bans Styrofoam
Chicken Republic, the Nigerian fast-food franchise, has announced plans to transition from the use of styrofoam and plastic containers.
Styrofoam is used to manufacture disposable packs or plates commonly found at eateries and also used by caterers.
The Lagos government had recently banned the usage and distribution of styrofoam and other single-use plastics across the state.
In a statement released on Monday, Food Concepts PLC, the restaurant’s parent company, praised the government’s decision to protect the environment.
The company said it would no longer use styrofoam packs for both walk-in and online orders from customers in the state.
Chicken Republic urged customers to bring their own reusable food containers, adding that there will be extra charges for plastic takeaway packs.
