How do we combat the growing food waste problem?

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, reducing food loss and waste is key to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and pressure on land and water resources. An estimated 17% of total global food production is wasted, and 11% of that occurs in households.

However, if we are to improve sustainability in retail, we can’t ignore the 2% of estimated food waste in retail as well. Huge amounts of edible food are thrown out at supermarkets around the world, and the solution is not a clear-cut one.

In this episode of Disruption Talks, part of the ‘Sustainability in Retail’ series, Jinder Kang and Patrick Rowse discuss the food waste problem and sustainable technology in retail.

Jinder Kang is the Innovation Consultancy Lead at Netguru and is an advocate of human-centered design to drive businesses forward through product, service, and business strategy.

Patrick Rowse is the Sustainability Manager at Delivery Hero. As an experienced sustainability professional, Patrick has a passion for the environment and innovation. He is motivated by the concept of "tangible good" and using environmental economics to build sustainability directly into core business strategy.

Hosted by Nat Chrzanowska.
