We offer two programs to help restaurants reduce their food waste: The PLEDGE™ and The PRIMER on Food Waste.
By joining one of these programs, restaurants commit to reducing their carbon footprints, saving money, and giving back to the community.
The PLEDGE™ on Food Waste is an international third-party certification program that instructs restaurants, hotels, convention centers, and other large foodservice businesses in tactics to reduce the amount of food they throw away. Make Food Not Waste is the first organization in the United States to offer this program. By joining this program, you will reduce your carbon footprint, save money, and give back to the community.
Looking to make changes but not ready for a certification program? Our PRIMER program can get you started by helping you take a handful of easy steps.
Sign up for The PLEDGE or The PRIMER today to be at the forefront of sustainability in the food service industry.
Restaurants that take The PLEDGE™ will go through a process of tracking their food waste and implementing a series of reduction tactics in seven key areas.
After completing all the steps and going through an audit, participating restaurants receive a certification at the bronze, silver, gold, or all-star levels, depending on how many food waste reduction steps they complete.
Make Food Not Waste will be there as a guide and cheerleader through the whole process.
