Food waste is a global problem amounting to immense financial and environmental costs. If you operate a food truck or restaurant this waste can cut in your bottom line in a big way.

Annually, the total value of food wasted globally is $1 trillion. In the US alone, 103 million tons of food waste were generated last 2018. It is also estimated that about 30% – 40% of the food supply goes to waste. These statistics can even go higher as the growing problem of food waste in America seems to have no end.

The effects of food waste can be felt not just financially. It’s not just a humanitarian or social concern. Environmentally, food waste also causes greenhouse gases. According to FAO, the carbon footprint caused by food waste is 3.3 billion tons of CO2 equivalent every year.

If we are not going to do anything, we are all going to be doomed in the future. We are all responsible for creating this big mess of food waste on our planet. Small actions such as starting a campaign on food conservation and waste reduction are a great start to helping our planet get back on track.

Here’s a list of food conservation and waste reduction slogans to encourage employees to reduce waste on your food truck.
