Carnival Corporation is thrilled to be named a finalist for the Sustainability Initiative of the Year at the Seatrade Cruise Awards 2025! Our food waste reduction strategy, Less Left Over – focused on “just-right” portioning, creative surplus repurposing and crew engagement – is making waves in the industry.
Thanks to our Less Left Over strategy, Carnival Corporation has surpassed our 2025 interim goal one year ahead of schedule, and we slashed food waste by 44% in 2024, relative to our 2019 baseline.
The Seatrade Cruise Awards shine a spotlight on the brightest ideas and boldest innovations in the cruise industry. From sustainability breakthroughs to design excellence, these annual honors celebrate the changemakers shaping the future of cruising. The awards ceremony takes place on September 10 in Hamburg, Germany, and we hope to bring home the prize.
We’re excited to see our zero-waste vision earn top-tier attention as a finalist in this global competition!
