Burgerfi Celebrates Earth Day With the Return of the Plant-Based Beyond Burger

As consumer demand for plant-based alternatives continues to grow, BurgerFi is providing a craveable option that aligns with evolving lifestyles. In recent years, nearly 10% of the population has identified as vegan or vegetarian, driven by increased awareness around environmental impact and animal welfare. The Beyond Burger answers that demand, offering guests a plant-based option that delivers the taste, texture, and satisfaction of a traditional burger, with a significantly lower environmental footprint.

Made from innovative ingredients like pea protein, coconut oil, and beet juice, the Beyond Burger is designed to closely mimic the flavor, appearance, and juiciness of ground beef.

"Today's guests want options that reflect their values without sacrificing flavor," stated BurgerFi Chef Gustavo Cutie. "The return of the Beyond Burger is just one way we're continuing to evolve our menu to meet the demand while staying true to our commitment to sustainability."

While the Beyond Burger headlines BurgerFi's Earth Day celebration, the brand's dedication to environmentally responsible practices extend far beyond a single menu item. BurgerFi uses Eco-Friendly Packaging with biodegradable and paper-based products, helping to eliminate millions of plastic straws and cups annually. BurgerFi implements a Sustainable Restaurant Design by incorporating upcycled and recycled materials including furniture made from recycled Coca-Cola bottles and milk cartons along with Eco-Conscious Design Elements including repurposed industrial materials like recycled meat hooks, which are all used creatively throughout the restaurant interiors.

Their buildings are Energy Efficient with the implementation of energy-saving LED lighting across all locations and finally their Waste Reduction Efforts include recycling cooking oil into biodiesel and providing recyclable napkins in-store.

BurgerFi is also committed to responsibly sourced ingredients, serving 100% natural Angus beef with no added antibiotics or hormones, ensuring quality and transparency across its menu.

In addition to the Beyond Burger, BurgerFi offers a lineup of premium, chef-crafted menu items, including hand-spun custard shakes, hand-breaded chicken tenders, and beer-battered onion rings along with a rotating seasonal offering designed to fit a variety of lifestyles.
