Food waste impacts more than you imagine

Did you know that if food waste were a country, it would be the third largest generator of greenhouse gases in the world? Every year, more than 1.6 billion tons of food are lost, generating COâ‚‚ emissions greater than those of entire countries. Only China and the United States pollute more. This problem not only affects the environment: it also represents economic, ethical, and operational losses for the hotel sector. Reducing food waste is not a trend; it is urgent, and also an opportunity to transform your hotel into a model of efficiency and sustainability. We are accredited consultants for THE PLEDGE on Food Waste and we provide hotels with a UN-award-winning sustainability program for the comprehensive reduction of emissions from food waste.

Every year, tons of food end up in the trash, affecting both the profitability of your F&B operations and the reputation of your hotel/restaurant. This waste can represent more than 10-16% of F&B revenue. More than 50% of food waste occurs in the pre-buffet stages. Do you know how much you could save by monitoring this data? With our program THE PLEDGE on Food Waste, we reduce food waste by an average of 50% in less than 4 months. Aligning your hotel/restaurant's operations with the goals of the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals outlined in the new Food Waste Law urges immediate action.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much can a hotel save by reducing its food waste?

    Hotels that have worked with us have achieved waste reductions of between 30% and 50%, representing thousands of euros in annual savings, depending on the size of the operation. We offer estimates based on your actual data.

  • Is it necessary to install new technology or systems?

    We can work with your existing waste measurement system, or if you don't currently have technology focused on food waste monitoring, we can help you choose the technology that best suits your needs. We implement a digital monitoring system to accurately record food waste. It's an easy-to-use tool designed to integrate seamlessly into the hotel's daily operations, without the need for large investments or advanced technical knowledge.

    Our team takes care of training and support.

  • How long does it take to see results with the program?

    The first indicators of improvement typically appear within the first two to four weeks, once waste begins to be recorded and the first corrective actions are implemented. In the medium term, hotels report sustained improvements in both efficiency and savings.

  • Does this program affect the guest experience?

    Quite the opposite. The goal isn't to reduce the quality or quantity of the food offering, but rather to optimize the processes behind it. Hotels that have implemented the program have improved their brand image, aligning themselves with sustainable practices that guests increasingly value.

  • Is the program compatible with hotels that already have sustainability certifications?

    Yes, absolutely. Our approach complements certifications such as Travelife, Biosphere, EarthCheck, Bioscore, Green Globe, and Green Key.

    and can provide valuable data for audits and reporting. It also offers specific waste indicators that many certifications don't detail on their own.
