Defining the actions the hospitality and food service sector will take to help to deliver the UK Food Waste Reduction Roadmap.

On this page you'll find introductory information about the UK Food Waste Reduction Roadmap, including the benefits in joining and everything your business needs to get started in delivering the Roadmap and 'Target, Measure, Act'.

Our plan for achieving Net Zero.

This report unveils new insights on how resource efficiency and resource sufficiency can cut greenhouse gas emissions. Developed in collaboration with CREDS researchers at the University of Leeds, it offers a clear, practical roadmap which delivers quick wins.

WRAP has carried out research on the contribution resource efficiency can make to achieving climate change targets. It covers supply of and demand for materials and products in the UK economy, and also accounts for the trade with the rest of the world. Thus, it covers the contribution from UK territorial emissions and from emissions related to consumption of goods and services imported from abroad.

A look at the strategy and practices that enable Co-op to adopt the principles of the UK Food Waste Reduction Roadmap – 'Target, Measure, Act'.

The following organisations have committed to the Food Waste Reduction Roadmap and the Target, Measure, Act principles.

Food waste is an end-to-end challenge that requires end-to-end solutions. WRAP and IGD are inviting businesses to participate in whole chain food waste reduction plans (WCPs) – working together across the supply chain to take joint actions that reduce farm to fork food waste. WCPs form a key deliverable of the Food Waste Reduction Roadmap. Supporters of the Roadmap have committed to Target, Measure, Act to reduce their own food waste, work in partnership with suppliers, and help consumers.

Outlining progress made in the second year of the Food Waste Reduction Roadmap.

• More than 70 new food organisations have joined the Roadmap in the last twelve months, committing to ‘Target, Measure, Act’ on food waste in their operations, supply chain and customer base.
• Businesses implementing 'Target, Measure, Act' have increased from 121 to 171.
• 180,000t of food (worth £300m) across 45 companies reporting comparable data has been saved from becoming waste by Roadmap members.
• New Whole Chain toolkit equips businesses to tackle supply chain food waste farm to fork.

WRAP’s mission is to accelerate the move to a sustainable, resource-efficient economy through:

• re-inventing how we design, produce and sell products
• re-thinking how we use and consume products
• re-defining what is possible through re-use and recycling

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the entire global economy, cutting economic activity and increasing unemployment.

A cross-industry vision to optimise productivity and minimise waste from farm to fork.
