The toolkit was developed to guide companies in reducing food waste. It includes sections on getting started and identifying diverse solutions. Conducting a waste audit is recommended to understand waste streams and identify reduction, reuse, recycling, and disposal opportunities. Establishing donation procedures and partnerships can help increase safe food donation. Overcoming barriers like liability concerns, supply chain challenges, and date labeling practices enables more donation. Diverting unavoidable waste through animal feed is preferable to disposal.
