UK biodiesel producer Olleco awarded Royal Warrant by Her Majesty The Queen

In the UK, Olleco, the renewables arm of ABP Food Group and the UK’s leading supplier of cooking oils and collector of used cooking oils, has become the first dedicated circular economy company to be granted a Royal Warrant by Her Majesty The Queen.

The Warrant has resulted from our work to create a “closed loop” solution for the Royal Household. Olleco supplies fresh, sustainable cooking oils and fats and reduces carbon miles by using the return journey to take back used cooking oils. These are then processed at our state-of-the art biorefinery to create premium biodiesel, a renewable fuel which reduces the carbon impact of road vehicles by up to 86%.

Royal Warrants are awarded as a mark of recognition to people or companies who have regularly supplied goods or services to members of the Royal Family for at least five years.

Olleco is a major resource management and sustainability company. Our new Royal Warrant comes shortly after us achieving second place at the Circulars awards at this year’s World Economic Forum in Davos. Both of these honours reflect the pivotal role we play in bringing our customers into the circular economy, supporting their commitment to sustainability and reducing their carbon footprint.
