Food is something we need to thrive and not just for nourishment.

When people come together for celebration or for comfort food plays a big part. That’s why we want you to join us in keeping food where it belongs – in our mouths, bellies and memories. And out of the places where food waste can make problems for us, both today and further down the track.

When food goes to landfill, it’s a wasted opportunity to advance sustainability for the hospitality industry and improve financial outcomes for operators.

To tackle this pressing issue and provide the data insights to drive awareness and action across our industry we have launched Kai Keepers, a groundbreaking initiative aiming to change food waste monitoring and outcomes for cafes and restaurants. The Kai Keepers pilot is initially running throughout the Auckland and Bay of Plenty regions, with a nationwide programme planned once the findings from the pilot are completed.
