The cost of food waste in hospitality
The food retail and hospitality industry contributes to approximately one-third of Australia’s total food waste. Not only is this hugely detrimental to the environment and climate change, but food waste also contributes to massive revenue loss for restaurants.
A report from the World Resources Institute found that for every $1 invested in reducing food waste, restaurants can save an average of $7.
