Business Mauritius, with the financial support of HRDC, has contracted LightBlue Environmental Consulting to design and implement an ambitious food waste prevention program on Mauritius Island. 10 pilots are embarking restaurants on a 6-month journey to cut on food waste, reduce unnecessary costs and negative environmental impacts, and reach the international certification and benchmarking standard The PLEDGE™ on Food Waste. Each pilot will receive technical training to implement an advanced food waste monitoring system in their kitchen, using LightBlue’s FIT Food Waste Monitoring Tech.
This agile technology solution is specifically designed to track and reduce both food waste and its associated costs in commercial kitchen environments. By utilizing advanced data analytics and real-time monitoring, the system enables kitchens to identify areas of inefficiency and take targeted actions to minimize waste. As a result, it effectively reduces food waste by an impressive 25-35%, leading to significant cost savings and contributing to more sustainable kitchen operations. This solution not only improves the bottom line but also supports broader environmental goals by reducing the ecological footprint of food waste in the industry.
Food waste has also a huge environmental impact, knowing the carbon, water, chemical and land footprint of agriculture. From an economic perspective, the BCG estimates that this global food waste issue is worth $1.2 trillion but represents in the other hand a $700 billion opportunity. Misunderstanding about the financial/social/environmental impacts of food waste by food professionals explains why so much is still wasted, and this misunderstanding is intrinsically linked to a lack of tracking. A cost-effective food waste monitoring system, helping to answer the key questions pertaining to this issue (how much is wasted, when, where, what it is, why, and how much it costs), will help overcome this . This newly available information is the knowledge needed to bring change in operations.
