Grease Outlet processes liquid and solid materials collected in restaurant and commercial kitchen grease traps. It serves haulers across North Carolina who pump wastewater from these businesses.
Processing “brown grease” from restaurants and other commercial kitchens protects municipal water systems by keeping grease out of water pipes, where it can cause blockages and overflows.
The company, based in Raleigh, NC, began operations in 2017. It processed more than 10 million pounds of food waste last year. Grease Outlet operates under permits issued by the City of Raleigh and the NC Department of Environmental Quality.
