Research from WRAP in 2009 found UK hotels, pubs, restaurants and quick service restaurants disposed of 600,000 tonnes of food waste.

• Some of this is made up of things like peelings, cores and bones, but the majority is (or once was) perfectly good food. 
• Little by little all this waste adds up.
• WRAP research indicates that by not throwing away good food (and diverting food waste  such as peelings, bones etc. to anaerobic digestion) pubs restaurants and hotels in the UK could save more than￡720 million a year.

This guidance has been produced by WRAP to help businesses to reduce food waste by challenging existing product life & ‘open’ life, with a view to extending it, without any change to product or packaging. It is intended for employees working in the food manufacturing and retail industry whose roles can have a direct influence on setting the product life/ ‘open’ life on finished products.
