Reducing Food Waste

Food Waste Reduction and Recycling

We not only control stock and consumption volume but carefully exchange information with frontline staff regarding effective ingredient usage, development of menus that use inventory effectively, and efforts toward zero inventory at suppliers, all in an effort to reduce total food waste. Furthermore, to help build a circular economy, we have begun working with partner companies to collect used cooking oils and recycle them into biodiesel fuel and medicinal hand soap.

Food Waste Reduction Efforts at Dormitory Facilities

The dormitory resident app "Domico" allows other residents to make reservations for meals when a meal reservation is suddenly canceled. This system allows residents to consume the canceled meals without waste, leading to reduced food waste.
