Leanpath is on a mission to make food waste prevention and measurement
everyday practice in the world’s kitchens
We believe front-line foodservice workers are the real change agents in the global fight against food waste. We empower them with technology and coaching to have a meaningful impact on the environment, at the same time they improve their kitchen’s efficiency. Leanpath-empowered culinary teams have prevented over 90 million pounds of food from being wasted.
We invented automated food waste tracking technology in 2004, and provide a complete food waste prevention solution, including data-collection tools, cloud-based analytics, and expert coaching. We are in thousands of kitchens around the world. Our offices are located in the U.S., U.K., and Singapore.
We are now a B Corp
Leanpath is a Certified B Corporation®, a group of businesses that meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose. Since our founding in 2004, we have placed our mission of food waste prevention on par with business needs. This certification codifies that work.
