Grapevine: Savour Food sees companies save money and enhance environment

EAST Cork food and retail businesses are making huge cost savings and having positive impacts on the environment and staff morale thanks to Savour Food, a new food waste reduction programme.

Supported by the Clean Technology Centre (CIT), SECAD, and Taste Cork, the 11 participating businesses were given Savour Food awards recently. For the past year, they have been given free consultancy, food waste prevention training and advice on legal obligations in relation to food waste management.
