Case Study: Iberostar reduces food waste and saves costs with Winnow

How Iberostar are scaling Winnow to over 100 hotels

Iberostar, a global hospitality company committed to sustainability, faced the challenge of reducing food waste as part of its goal to send zero waste to landfill by 2025. Working with Winnow, Iberostar used daily waste reporting and analytics to better understand excess food, its cost, and its weight across hotel kitchens.

Winnow helped Iberostar cut food waste by 35%, saving 300,000 meals and $290,000. The company also discovered it was throwing away about 35% of its croissant production, allowing it to reduce output while improving quality. In one hotel alone, the partnership with Winnow has already avoided 120 tons of CO2 emissions, supporting Iberostar’s carbon-neutrality goal for 2030.
