Over 800 million people worldwide are undernourished, while one-third of all food produced for human consumption (~1 B tons) is lost or wasted between the farm and table each year. Retail food chains such as Papa John\u2019s are doing little to recognize or address the problem, yet cost savings are enormous to the company and a boon for communities once waste is identified, measured and cut.<\/p>\n
Papa John\u2019s International operates in all 50 states and 39 countries, but lacks basic sustainability reporting and does not acknowledge that food waste is a major problem within the company. Our goal is to encourage Papa John’s to develop processes to better measure, report and combat food waste and address global hunger, including: CBIS reached out to Papa John\u2019s twice at the end of 2016, to discuss the issue and press the company for better reporting. We are drafting a letter now with the improvements we\u2019d like to see in management practice and reporting for 2017, and have been partnering with key food waste advocates on strategy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Over 800 million people worldwide are undernourished, while one-third of all food produced for human consumption (~1 B tons) is lost or wasted between the farm and table each year.
