Winnow food waste monitoring at Le Buffet
Sands reported 75% less food overproduction after installing Winnow at Le Buffet
Problem
Resort kitchens needed to identify excess food production and reduce waste. Broad waste totals offered limited detail for individual restaurants.
Approach
Sands China installed Winnow AI units at The Parisian Macao's Le Buffet in 2024. The systems monitored food waste to help kitchens reduce overproduction.
Results
Takeaway
The reported reduction concerned food overproduction at Le Buffet. It did not measure a reduction in total waste across Sands' resorts.
