Introducing Events: The Smarter Way to Track Food Waste for Every Service

Spotlighting events

We’re excited to introduce Events a smarter, clearer way to track food waste for every service, occasion, or high-pressure moment in your kitchen.

Events are often the biggest drivers of food waste, from match days to conferences to seasonal rushes. With Events, Positive Carbon gives you precise visibility into how these spikes impact your kitchen, helping you stay in control, stay lean, and stay prepared.

Whether it’s a one-off or a recurring event, our new feature brings structure, clarity, and data-driven insight to the moments that matter most.

Plan smarter with real visibility

Every event is different covers, menus, timings, and expectations all shift. Events allows you to log each upcoming service with the exact details your team needs to prepare properly.

Add covers, menu notes, timings, and service type so you can forecast more accurately and adjust production before waste happens.

Track waste by event

Positive Carbon’s platform now lets you track food waste for specific events, giving you the clearest picture yet of how each service performs.

Once an event is live, you can see all associated waste events in one place, measured cleanly and independently of the rest of your service operations. And because the system captures data in real time, you can respond to issues as they happen.

The metrics that matter

Want to know how efficient your event was?
Events automatically gives you powerful performance insights, including:

• Waste per cover

• Total waste generated

• Cost and carbon impacts

• Comparison against previous events

This lets you demonstrate how lean your kitchen truly is — even under the pressure of large-scale service.

Designed for team, built with clarity

Events creates a shared, structured space where your team can align around what’s happening and when.

Clear details. Accurate records. A real understanding of how different services perform.

Empowering better decisions

By connecting event-level context with real-time waste data, you finally get the insight you’ve always wanted:

• What type of events generate the most waste?

• How should you plan production for next time?

• Which events are running lean, and which need attention?

Events gives you the visibility to plan better, act smarter, and reduce waste when it matters most.
