FAQs about MRc5 :

Can our project earn this credit with just a one-time purchase of food for an event in the building?

We have several tenants in our building. Do we have to track food purchases from all of them? What if they won't give us their purchasing data?

Do we have to include food and beverages that are purchased for our vending machines?

What if a food item is produced nearby (say at a processing plant) but the ingredients aren’t sourced locally. Does that count towards the 100-mile regional criteria?

EBOM-2009 MRc5:Sustainable Purchasing—Food

Excluding Tenants

I understand you can excluded up to tenant spaces up to 10% of the square footage of the building. However, our tenant spaces is slightly higher then 10%. We don't have control over tenant purchases, so for our other MR c 1-4 we are counting tenant purchases as 0% sustainable and estimating costs for them past on our own costs per sq ft. Would it be possible to employ the same strategy for this credit? Has anyone had sucess with that?
