With food waste contributing to around 8-10% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions each year, reduction initiatives are an essential part of the future of the food service industry and our planet’s health.

One of the tools we have implemented in the fight against food waste is Leanpath, an innovative tracking and analysis system that measures plate and production waste by utilising scales. Through Leanpath, we are able to reduce costs associated with food waste and improve food productivity across our sites.

Food waste reduction is a core element of Planet Promise, Compass Groups commitment to reach Net Zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across our global operations and value chain by 2050.
