Case Study: Hilton Dubai Jumeirah achieves 70% less food waste and $65,000 savings with Winnow

How Hilton Dubai Jumeirah saved $65,000 by reducing food waste

Hilton Dubai Jumeirah, a large luxury hotel in Dubai Marina with 12 restaurants and a major food and beverage operation, was looking to reduce food waste while maintaining high food quality and sustainability standards. Winnow worked with the hotel using its smart food waste measurement system to help identify where waste was happening and how much was being produced unnecessarily.

Winnow’s solution gave the team clear insight into the most wasted dishes and peak waste times, allowing them to adjust production, swap out unpopular items, and cook some breakfast items to order. As a result, Hilton Dubai Jumeirah cut food waste by 70%, saving an estimated $65,000 per year and 17,680 meals annually, while also reducing overproduction and improving operational efficiency.
