How the Food Industry is Tackling Food Waste - Latest Innovations and Trends

About This Webinar

Food waste is a massive issue in the United States and abroad. In the U.S. alone, an estimated 35% of all food goes unsold or uneaten, and a staggering 54 million tons goes to waste each year. The good news is that consumers and food companies can address the issue by taking rather simple steps.

Join The Food Institute as we invite industry experts to discuss the issue of food waste, and how businesses are bringing solutions to the retail, foodservice, and manufacturing levels, with an eye toward reducing food waste by as much as 50% over the next decade. Our panel includes executives from ReFED, CHR Hansen, and Marcum who will offer insights and real-world solutions.
