Abstract

This study investigates the sustainability practices of Pizza 4P's, a prominent figure in Vietnam's food industry, using a Cradle to Gate Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach with Open LCA software. Focusing on 4P's pizza production which has a 252 supplying partners, this study uncovers the environmental benefits of their sustainability endeavors, including the finding that the making of a 4P’s pizza emits 28 percent less carbon dioxide than a normal pizza, and highlights strong partnerships with like-minded suppliers. However, it also suggests room for improvement, emphasizing the need to expand sustainable supplier networks, address technical challenges, and adopt circular economy principles for organic waste management. Encouraging customers to choose vegetarian pizzas is recommended for further sustainability. This offers practical insights for both the company and the wider food and beverage industry, underlining the crucial role of sustainable practices in shaping the future of food production and consumption.
