School food waste challenges

Schools and universities face unique challenges with student preferences, tight budgets, and sustainability expectations.

Student Preferences

Students can be picky eaters. Without data on what they actually eat, menus are based on guesswork.

Tight Budgets

School food budgets are limited. Every pound wasted on uneaten food is money not spent on quality.

Sustainability Education

Schools want to teach sustainability but lack concrete data to make food waste visible to students.
