Reducing food waste in the food service and retail sectors Smart solutions for sustainable business

Food waste is a huge problem in both the catering and retail sectors. Products that are still edible are often thrown away because the best-before date (BBD) is misunderstood. This not only leads to unnecessary economic losses, but also to an enormous burden on the environment.

With our Meto Expert and the special labels “often longer edible!!” we offer a simple and effective solution to counteract this waste. Our products are specifically designed to help companies minimize food waste, manage stock levels more efficiently and help protect the environment at the same time.

Why is this important?

Large quantities of food are handled on a daily basis in the food service and retail sectors. The misinterpretation of best-before dates leads to many products being thrown away unnecessarily. Our Meto solutions ensure greater clarity and transparency when it comes to best-before dates. The result? Less waste, more sustainability and optimized costs.

How can our solutions help you?

Whether in the kitchen of a large restaurant or on the shelves of a supermarket - the right labeling solutions can make a decisive difference. Our labels with the message “often edible for longer!!!” not only help to reduce food waste, but also to optimize processes and save costs in the long term.
