Sports and entertainment hospitality provider, Levy Ireland, has launched a pioneering food waste reduction initiative in partnership with Positive Carbon.
Positive Carbon’s advanced food waste monitoring system uses cutting-edge sensors to track and analyse discarded food items, providing accurate data and valuable insights on waste patterns. This information will empower Levy Ireland teams to identify food waste sources and implement targeted reduction strategies. By gaining visibility into food waste, chefs can streamline operations, improve cost control and ensure consistent progression towards sustainability objectives.
The Convention Centre Dublin (The CCD) will be the first Levy Ireland partner site to embark on its Positive Carbon food waste reduction journey. Levy Ireland has been working with The CCD since it first opened in 2010. Minimising environmental impact and ensuring a climate conscious and sustainable operation is key to its long-standing relationship.
Lenny Fearon, Culinary Director, Levy Ireland said: “Levy Ireland is delighted to partner with Positive Carbon to address the critical issue of food waste. This scheme aligns with our commitment to sustainability and our goal of decreasing food waste on our mission to achieving net zero. By leveraging Positive Carbon’s technology, we can make a measurable impact and set a new standard for the hospitality industry.
“The Convention Centre Dublin is just the start; we will be introducing the Positive Carbon food waste reduction technology across our Levy Ireland portfolio.”
Mark Kirwan, CEO, Positive Carbon commented: “Positive Carbon is excited to partner with such esteemed organisations in the food and events industry. The proactive stance of both Levy Ireland and The Convention Centre Dublin on food waste demonstrates that we can all make a significant impact on the planet. Their leadership in sustainability is commendable, and we look forward to sharing their journey and successes.”
