Green Field Solutions partners with some of the most mouthwatering candy manufacturers not only to fight food waste, but also to generate new value for it by keeping it in the food supply chain. In fact, Green Field Solutions manages eight million pounds of candy and sugar, and 12 million pounds of chocolate and candy bars every year. That’s 20 million pounds of sweet surplus GFS converts from debt to asset.
While creating this new value, confectioners are also contributing to a sustainable food system and environmentally-forward waste management practices by keeping food waste out of landfills and in the supply chain. Identifying the right ingredients for raising healthy livestock gives the sugary scraps new purpose and, in turn, produces protein to feed people around the world. This is exactly the type of strategy needed to ensure food supply security.
