Case Study: Ritz Carlton Aruba reduces food waste and boosts sustainability with Winnow

Ritz Carlton Aruba Elevating Sustainability in Luxury Hospitality

Ritz Carlton Aruba, a luxury hotel in the Caribbean, faced a significant food waste challenge, especially in its banquet operations where overproduction led to large amounts of uneaten food. To address this, the hotel turned to Winnow’s AI technology to better track waste and support its sustainability goals while maintaining exceptional guest experiences.

Winnow implemented its analytics and reporting tools to help Ritz Carlton Aruba monitor, categorize, and analyze food waste across its kitchens. The hotel has already reduced waste in key areas like the butcher station, improved waste segregation and overproduction control, and achieved significant cost savings while strengthening a culture of conscious, responsible luxury.
