Resource Management

One of the major issues the restaurants face is waste management. Managers are trying to fight this issue not only to have a more sustainable business, but also to save money. A study conducted by the University of Arizona revealed that in fast-food restaurants, the food waste amounts to 9.55% of the total food purchased, whereas in full service restaurants it reaches 11.3%. These numbers are concerning when you take into account that food is the second largest expense in the restaurant industry, right after employees’ salaries. Every restaurant takes different measures to tackle this issue while others are trying to reach a zero-waste model. This model is hard to reach currently, but you could tackle this issue by implementing 7 strategies to reduce waste in your kitchen and save cost and resources.

Inventory is the backbone of any food product or culinary business. This is what keeps one going on with the usual business sale even if there are not enough ingredients at hand. Continuous over or under ordering can be bad for the business as they can create problems of increased costs and customer dissatisfaction. Running out of stock is rarely good for business. In the hospitality industry, businesses face intense competition and operational challenges, making it imperative for owners to stay vigilant about stock and expenses. Effective inventory management is crucial for achieving this goal.

One third of the food produced to be consumed by humans is wasted all around the world.

Solving the food waste problem and ensuring better food availability is the concern of today’s food industry. With a food supply chain, waste of production, distribution, processing and consumption can occur anywhere. In order to solve the food waste problem, all these stages should be addressed.
