The real cost of surplus food
Let’s be honest: even the most dialed-in food businesses end up with surplus. Maybe it’s a dip in footfall, a supplier over-delivery, or just a batch that didn’t move as fast as expected. It happens. Across retailers, restaurants, wholesalers, bakeries, everywhere. But what feels like a normal part of doing business can quietly stack up into something bigger.
That unsold tray of sandwiches? It’s not just food, it’s time, energy, staff hours and resources that went into making it. And when it ends up in the bin, it costs twice: once to produce and again to throw away.
For retailers, it might be short-dated inventory that doesn’t sell in time. For restaurants, it’s often prep that outpaces orders. For wholesalers and producers, it’s perfectly good food that never makes it to the shelf. And it doesn’t stop there. Every item thrown out also means higher disposal fees and a growing environmental footprint. It affects your margins, your operations and your sustainability goals.
Whether you’re running a multi-site grocery chain or a small café, food waste is a drag on efficiency and a daily missed opportunity.
