According to WRAP research 1.3Bn meals are wasted every year by the UK hospitality and foodservice industries costing around £3.2Bn.  

Paul Anderson, managing director of Meiko UK, said: “Everyone from senior management to chefs and restaurant managers can download this report for free and take away something that will make a difference in their own kitchens.

“Water, energy, waste: people are beginning to move away from acting on price and costs, to think about climate change and how much you could save in services by taking a long-term view, by investing in more sustainable practices and equipment.”

The report authors interviewed key players and collaborated with likeminded professionals to produce a report that puts the waste issue into 2021 perspective and talks about how to go forward.
