Foo Go was a brand of pre-packed sandwiches and other convenience food.[2]

Foo Go operated on a "zero waste" policy and has used water-based boards, inks, and coatings with packet windows made from cornstarch instead of the normal oil-based inks and plastic film[3] to make the containers biodegradable.[4][5][6]

History

Foo Go was founded in 2001 by George Robinson. In 2009, Greencore Group plc bought Foo Go for £4.4M.[citation needed]
