Food waste reduction solutions for retail

Less waste, more value

One-third of all food is wasted, harming the climate, biodiversity, and consumers. Food waste is a global challenge. For retailers, it’s also an immense opportunity.

Until recently, food waste seemed inevitable. Long distances, fluctuating demand, complexity – waste was just part of the system. Now that’s changing. New solutions make it possible to illuminate the entire value chain, enabling everyone from farmers to retailers to coordinate on a scale never before possible. Here’s how you can reduce waste and create new value.

Our four-part offer

With your ability to exert influence throughout the value chain, retailers play a pivotal role in reducing food waste. We help you reduce your food waste in four ways:

  1. Product innovation and sustainable packaging
  2. Connected supply chain and inventory management
  3. Rescue and reuse
  4. Influence consumer behavior

Together, these tools give you the ability to see what’s happening, so you can react faster, and collaborate on a new level.
