Reducing NHS Food Waste: Local Procurement, Local Contracts, In-house Catering

2:00 p.m. (GMT) / 9:00 a.m. (EST) 26th January 2010

How can local procurement, local contracts and in-house catering reduce food waste in the NHS? Hear it from those who have already gone down this route.

Some of the best practice examples to be discussed in this webinar include:

  • Flexibility of local procurement when ordering and cancelling items as required for that day;
  • Regular communication with the wards eliminating over-ordering;
  • In-house restaurants selling on any food that is not required by the wards;
  • Plus the business case for streamlining the supply chain.
