ReFED’s Angel Veza To Speak on Food Waste Solutions

Minimizing food waste marks one way operators can help their brands reach their sustainability goals, and it’s become more of a focus lately.

Angel Veza, senior manager, innovation initiatives at the U.S.-based nonprofit ReFED, will help operators with equipment and kitchen design responsibilities find ways to reduce food waste during the presentation “Food Waste Solutions” at FER’s Multiunit Foodservice Equipment Symposium.

In her role at ReFED, Veza works closely with food waste solution providers to develop, scale and fund high-impact innovations. Her background includes time spent in the hospitality industry, working at some of New York City’s top restaurants as well as Compass Group. She was part of the food waste team at the World Wildlife Fund and as an expansion of that, worked in supply chain and led strategic sourcing and procurement with a focus on food waste reduction at Manhatta restaurant, part of Danny Meyer’s Union Square Hospitality Group in New York City.
