In 2023, the retail, foodservice, and manufacturing sectors generated more than $217 billion in surplus food. ReFED recognizes the scale, complexity, and importance of addressing food waste. Drawing on expertise and experience—our own and that of our network—our Business Services team guides you in turning ambitious food waste reduction goals into sustainable, high-impact results.
Leveraging the tools in ReFED's Insights Engine, we provide access to industry benchmarks and tailored analytics that help food businesses identify, prioritize, and implement high-impact food waste solutions. Our tools support businesses in collecting, reporting, and acting on the data that drives measurable progress.
With years of experience across the food industry, we offer tailored insights to help businesses address their unique challenges—focusing on engagements with the potential to deliver financial, social, and environmental impact at scale. Through targeted support, we help catalyze food waste reduction strategies and drive solutions adoption.
We equip food businesses with targeted resources, sector-specific strategies, and best practices to build internal capacity for food waste reduction. Through tailored guidance and education, we help organizations grow awareness and take action at every stage of their waste reduction journey.
Beyond our tailored solutions, organizations can collaborate with their industry peers by joining the U.S. Food Waste Pact, a pre-competitive, cross-sector initiative co-led by ReFED and World Wildlife Fund that mobilizes food businesses to take collective action on reducing food waste within their operations.
