Abstract

The issue of food waste is gaining more attention in both the public and scholarly realms. This is due to the gravity of the situation and the growing public awareness of the importance of eating healthy and sustainable foods. As a result, there are an increasing number of initiatives aimed at reducing food waste at all levels of the supply chain, from the first phases of production and storage up to the product cooked and ready to be consumed by customers. Still, food waste remains an unsolved problem, and many initiatives struggle to move from the design to the full-scale implementation. This study focuses on a successful food waste management innovation process in IIUM. The study illustrates how, with a limited investment and the involvement of stakeholders, an effective programme for reducing food waste in Mahalla canteens and on campus restaurants and cafeterias in IIUM may be implemented.
