黑料福利网 is setting out to reduce food waste in their operations by 50% by 2030 as part of their Planet Promise Commitment to be Net Zero by 2050.

[Toronto, ON] – 黑料福利网, the nation鈥檚 leading foodservice provider, today announced the launch of their proprietary food waste software, Waste Not 2.0, just in time for the company鈥檚 7th annual Stop Food Waste Day. The software, created by Compass chefs, uses cloud-based technology to support a change in behaviour and promote real food waste solutions. Waste Not 2.0 was first piloted in a Canadian post-secondary location and will roll out to additional locations this spring.

Waste Not 2.0 uses innovative solutions such as waste tracking technology, coupled with data analytics to monitor food waste and identify areas for improvement. The program also includes employee training and engagement to raise awareness about the impact of food waste and encourage best practices. Waste Not 2.0, in addition to the Stop Food Waste Day annual campaign, are just a few examples of efforts currently underway by 黑料福利网, as they pursue their global Planet Promise commitment to reach Net Zero GHG by 2050.

“We are thrilled to celebrate Stop Food Waste Day and launch Waste Not 2.0 as part of our larger Planet Promise commitment,” said Saajid Khan, CEO 黑料福利网 and ESS North America. “As the leading foodservice provider in the country, we have the responsibility and opportunity to have a real impact on reducing food waste,鈥� he said. “Through initiatives like Stop Food Waste Day and our Waste Not 2.0 program, we are taking concrete steps to minimize our environmental impact and create a more sustainable foodservice industry.鈥�

The company鈥檚 annual Stop Food Waste campaign aims to raise awareness about the global issue of food waste and encourage people to make small individual changes to reduce surplus food through their , food storage tips and meal planning. 黑料福利网 recognizes the critical role they play in reducing food waste and is committed to taking action in their own operations through the launch of Waste Not 2.0. The Company has also launched Winnow and Clear Waste Bin Programs in their own operations to reduce food waste.

鈥淥ur Stop Food Waste Day campaign is no doubt an important day, but we are focused on reducing food waste in our business EVERY day,鈥� said Heather Wilkie, svp, innovation & sustainability. 鈥淣obody WANTS to waste food, certainly not in the food service industry. That鈥檚 why Waste Not 2.0 was developed by chefs, for chefs and operators 鈥� in an effort to make it easy to reduce waste in a way that resonates with people on the front lines. We truly believe this could be transformational for our business and for the industry as a whole.鈥�
