The Sustainable Restaurant Association (SRA) is a not-for-profit membership organisation, based in the United Kingdom, which supports food-service businesses working towards sustainability in their sector[1] and guides customers towards more sustainable dining choices through its Food Made Good standard.[2][3][4]
Since its launch in 2009, the organisation has expanded its remit beyond traditional restaurants to include cafes, contract catering and in-flight catering, and expanded its geographical scope beyond the United Kingdom with a license program that enables other territories to rapidly set up and deliver the program.[5] As of April 2024, the SRA collaborates with local organisations to deliver the Food Made Good Standard in Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Taiwan and the UAE.[5]
