Jack in the Box has relatively minimal market share within its packaging suppliers’ capacity. We will always strive to constantly improve and further the sustainability of the products that we procure and sell to our customers; however, we must balance the progression of sustainability with the objective of managing our business in a fiscally responsible manner.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we are committed to working towards increasing the sustainability of our packaging. By 2030, we, in conjunction with the capabilities of our suppliers, aim to:
Reduce the percentage of spend on virgin plastic packaging 20% below our 2020 level (in 2020, approximately 25% of our packaging spend was comprised of virgin plastic, which is now approximately 22% as of September 2025);
Have the majority of fiber packaging material to be produced from recycled or originate from certified sustainable sources (as of September 2025, approximately 87.22% of our fiber packaging met this standard); and
Expand our model of offering single-use plastics such as straws and bags upon request only, as is current practice in select jurisdictions where it’s legally required.
As of September 2025, approximately 52.38% of our total food packaging spend went towards the purchase of compostable materials.
Beginning in 2023, our packaging suite became 100% PFAs-free systemwide.
We look forward to sharing future updates on our sustainable packaging efforts here as they are available.
