Restaurants, hotels, caterers and food shops can produce significant amounts of food waste every day. Without regular collection, food scraps can quickly create unpleasant smells and attract pests. Food waste collection in Accra helps businesses keep waste under control and their premises more organised.
Where Does Food Waste Come From?
Common sources include:
- Restaurant kitchens
- Hotels and guesthouses
- Catering businesses
- Supermarkets and food shops
- Cafés and bakeries
- Events and large gatherings
Food preparation scraps, spoiled food and uneaten food can all contribute to the daily waste volume.
When Is Extra Collection Needed?
Businesses may need additional pickup during:
- Busy weekends
- Weddings and large events
- Holiday periods
- Catering jobs
- Stock clear-outs
- Kitchen clean-ups
A restaurant in Osu serving a busy weekend crowd, for example, can generate considerably more food waste than it does on quieter days.
