Compass has been working together with Winnow for nine years now to reduce food waste using AI technology.
Compass Group was one of Winnow’s first customers, and over these years, our technology has been implemented across key areas of Compass’ business, including staff restaurants, universities, military bases and hospitals.
Compass Group Benelux and Winnow have been working together towards a shared ambition to halve food waste across all sites by 2030. An initial deployment of Winnow to 50 sites has seen waste levels cut by 30%, saving 270,000 meals yearly.
Hear from the remarkable chefs across Compass Group Benelux who are using Winnow to create a more sustainable future for everyone.
The Compass Group team at Foyer Assurances cut food waste by a remarkable 70% within only four months of using the system, after a year that would equate to 13,000 meals saved annually. A real team effort, the team has made considerable reductions in plate waste and overproduction. Here are some tips straight from the head chef, Olivier Chivard.
- Study plate waste by analysing the plate waste data provided by Winnow daily, the Foyer Assurances team realised that their portion sizes were too large.
- Manage stock and inventory: Identify what’s in stock on Wednesday so that there’s no waste by Friday.
- Avoid fully restocking the buffet right before the end of lunch.
