KAA Gent Started Selling Reusable Cups
As part of their sustainability strategy and in the fight against plastic, KAA Gent is taking another step in the green direction. In cooperation with Goodless, KAA Gent is the first club in Belgium to make use of reusable cups, with an initial deposit being charged, which then flows back to the payer. Regardless of who deposits the cups in the vending machine.
What does a pint cost?
From now on, every fan will drink pints from 25 cl cups everywhere in the stadium. Per pint, you pay €2.50. For a reusable cup, you pay a deposit of €1.50 when you buy your consumption. This deposit will be refunded on your consumption card once you deposit the cup in the vending machine.
