In today’s episode, we welcome guest Patrick McDermott, founder of DigiTally, a business that helps retail and hospitality businesses reduce waste and increase margins through digital stock-taking services. Patrick believes that the food waste problem in the developed parts of the world is a serious issue and that it is time for the industry to take responsibility.

We delve into the importance of understanding margins, reducing food waste, and training employees for success. Patrick also uncovers engaging with non-monetary figures, digitalising food inventory, and why hard decisions lead to better long-term outcomes.
