Description

Magic Costa Blanca Hotels aimed to tackle food waste by introducing innovative waste management solutions across its Spanish accommodations. In 2023, Magic Cristal Park in Benidorm became the first in the chain to implement LightBlue Consulting's FIT Food Waste Tech solution, designed specifically for commercial kitchens. Following its success, the FIT solution expanded to five more properties in Spain, demonstrating the hospitality industry's growing commitment to sustainability.

Impact & Result

Between May 2023 and May 2024, the FIT solution made a remarkable impact by reducing food waste by 48 tonnes and saving approximately 96,460 meals that would have otherwise gone to waste. This initiative also prevented the emission of 120 tonnes of CO₂, significantly lowering the carbon footprint associated with food disposal. Altogether, these efforts resulted in an impressive $182,311 in total savings.


Thanks to FIT and LightBlue’s consulting guidance, we’ve seen a 31% reduction in food waste, prevented 120,570 kg of CO2 emissions, and achieved savings of $182,300 USD in the first year alone. Beyond these impressive figures, FIT has transformed our mindset, making sustainability a core part of our daily operations and leaving a lasting impact on both our business and the Benidorm culinary community. For Magic Costa Blanca, it really is great news to have the team involved with the planet, not only to save on costs and food, but also to return to society what it gives back to us.
