AI Monitoring Helps Marriott Hotels to Slash Food Waste

Marriott Hotels has significantly reduced its food waste by utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) monitoring technology from Winnow Vision.

Marriott Hotels, in partnership with Winnow Vision, has successfully utilized artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor and reduce its food waste. The AI technology is designed to analyze kitchen waste by identifying the types of food that are most commonly thrown away. This information allows the hotel chain to adjust its purchasing and preparation practices accordingly, leading to a significant reduction in food waste.

The implementation of this AI monitoring system is part of Marriott’s larger sustainability initiative. The company aims to reduce its food waste by 50% by 2025 as part of their commitment to sustainable and responsible operations. The use of AI technology not only helps achieve this goal but also results in substantial cost savings for the company.

Winnow Vision’s AI system uses a camera, smart scales, and machine learning algorithms to identify what types of food are being discarded. This data-driven approach provides valuable insights into how much food is wasted and why it happens. By understanding these patterns, Marriott can make informed decisions on menu planning and portion sizes which ultimately leads to less wastage.
