Good Day Deli
Good Day Deli is a sustainable foods deli serving a mix of local, organic, seasonal and fair trade foods with a commitment to sustainability throughout a supply chain. They use the highest quality ingredients to create contemporary, unique and delicious dishes. It is a local, independent business that promotes health and wellbeing, elevates local producers and encourages good food choices to protect the environment now and for our future generations.Good Day Deli is based in the stunning gardens of Nano Nagle Place, surrounded by nature, overlooking Cork City. Nano Nagle Place is a unique heritage centre in the heart of Cork City, with beautifully restored 18th and 19th century architecture.
The core value on the basis of which Good Day Deli is operating upon, in life and in business, is best explained in the Cook Island value of Mana Tiaki which is guardianship of heritage and the environment for now and for future generations.
In the traditional Māori worldview, people are closely connected to the land and nature and manage natural resources, only taking what’s needed. Good Day Deli owners want to believe that they are stewards of nature to be passed on to future generations.
"We believe our food choices are a tangible way to take responsibility for the environment and drive demand for sustainable food chains." - they say.
Good Day Deli (GDD) is a cafe but also a platform for sharing information.
They do this by:
- Providing education through service
- Using their social media
- Organising free “Nature Talks”
- Creating projects such as the “Food Choice Machine” and more…
"We want people to visit enticed by the good food but leave feeling more engaged in issues of sustainability."
