INCPEN rapport: Weinig artikelen die alleen voorverpakt verkocht worden staan in top 20 meest weggegooide artikelen binnen de retail

Wastage in the retail supply chain occurs for many and varied reasons including mishandling, inadequate packaging, shelf life of products, over ordering, stock rotation issues, even incorrect weather forecasting. The INCPEN study ‘Checking out Food Waste’ identifies the main product categories that suffer the greatest losses in terms of both weight and value.
It is worth noting that the majority of the high wastage product types are typically sold both loose and pre-packed. Food sold from the delicatessen counter features highly. Few products that are sold only pre-packed appear in the top 20. It would therefore be worth exploring if packaging more of those sold loose would reduce waste.
