What if restaurants are wasting more food than they realize? Most businesses think they have food waste under control—until they see the numbers.

And the truth?

70% of food waste in restaurants never even reaches a customer’s plate.

In this episode of Tomorrow’s Bites, we sit down with Olaf van der Veen, co-founder of Orbisk, a startup using AI-powered food waste tracking to help restaurants cut waste, reduce costs, and boost sustainability. Olaf shares his journey from hospitality to entrepreneurship, revealing how a simple idea turned into a game-changing tool for the food industry.

We dive into:

How AI and smart tracking can help businesses save food (and money).
The biggest mistakes restaurants make when managing waste.
Why sustainability solutions only work if they’re profitable.
The future of food waste reduction—can we reach zero waste?
