See the FoodOp Food Waste Tracker in action — tailored to your kitchen operation.
The platform of choice for chef teams.
“FoodOp makes it seamless to publish menus with carbon footprints, nutritional values and allergens. Before FoodOp, our chef teams preferred working in Microsoft Word — or even with pen and paper — and very few used our food management and purchasing system. FoodOp is the first food management system that scales well with our chef teams.”
“FoodOp forms the backbone of our tech stack, connecting all systems end-to-end. At its core is the menu planner that integrates seamlessly with both front- and back-of-house systems. Menus are costed in real time, and with a single click, ingredients are procured and menus published to our guest app and POS.”
“FoodOp makes it easy to ensure our menu plans meet daily and weekly nutritional targets across all elderly homes. Older adults only thrive with proper nutrition, so having a platform that automatically calculates the nutrition of each meal is incredibly valuable.”
“FoodOp has improved our margins significantly by aligning procurement across sites to a pre-defined product universe. We are enabled to negotiate prices and kick-back for our top products and our chef teams enjoy a platform full of automation and menu inspiration.”
“With our whitelabel FoodOp platform, we can tailor offers based on actual menu data, grow our share of wallet, and lead on sustainability — while giving our customers seamless procurement, live pricing, and instant reporting.”

Talk to our teamWhat sets FoodOp's food waste solution apart from other solutions?+
FoodOp is the only fully automated solution, so your chef teams can focus on creating great culinary experiences. Other solutions require chefs to carry around bins, hold plates under a camera or manually weigh waste. These seemingly small steps disrupt the kitchen workflow and deliver inconsistent insights.
What sizes do the scales come in?+
Small scales are 18×25cm and take up to 40kg. Medium scales are 30×30cm and take up to 120kg. Large scales are 60×60cm and take up to 120kg.
Do the scales need a connection to Wi-Fi?+
No. We set up our own 4G internet so we don't rely on your network.
Are the scales wireless?+
Yes — the scales are wireless so you can place them exactly where you need them. They have a two-year battery life, so every second year you'll need to charge them overnight.
Are the scales waterproof?+
Yes — the scales are built for a kitchen environment. They cannot, however, go through the dishwasher.
Can we integrate data into existing reports and systems?+
Yes. Our APIs make it simple to pull data into your existing reporting tools, and you can export all data directly to Excel.
What level of support does FoodOp provide?+
Our Customer Success team supports you every step of the way — from onboarding through ongoing support via live chat, phone and our help center.
