Kitchens generate a massive amount of data, but too often, that data lives in silos. Today, we are changing that. Leanpath, the leader in enterprise food waste management, has announced a new backend integration with Nutritics to bridge the gap between menu planning and waste tracking.

This partnership establishes a powerful, two-way data flow that gives our shared clients a level of insight and accuracy that simply wasn’t possible before. It’s not just about tracking what gets thrown away; it’s about connecting that loss directly to your purchasing and preparation strategies.

“Integrating with leading food data platforms is essential to driving targeted results in food waste reduction. By bringing Nutritics’ detailed menu and pricing data into Leanpath, we make the act of tracking waste more intuitive and more accurate. Furthermore, routing that data back into Nutritics empowers kitchen operators to turn waste insights into actionable changes in purchasing and production directly within Nutritics.”

A Closed-Loop System

The concept is simple but effective: create a “closed-loop” system where food data management and waste reduction talk to each other. By connecting Nutritics’ recipe management with Leanpath’s tracking, operators can finally see the full picture.

Here is how it works in practice:

Item-Specific Monitoring

Detailed menu and pricing information from Nutritics is now imported directly into the Leanpath tracking platform.

This solves a common headache for kitchen teams. Instead of generic waste categories, staff can track waste by the exact menu item. Because the pricing data flows in with the item, you get immediate visibility into the associated cost, making the data much more financially relevant to your bottom line.

Operational Optimisation

Tracking waste is useful, but stopping it is better. With this integration, detailed waste data flows automatically back into Nutritics.

By combining these “wasted food” insights with your existing menu management and purchasing modules, you can make smarter decisions. It becomes easier to adjust inventory orders, tweak prep quantities, or change menu schedules to stop waste from happening in the first place.

“Nutritics is designed to be the single source of truth for food data, enabling operators to make better decisions across recipes, purchasing, and food safety. Integrating Leanpath’s waste intelligence directly into Nutritics closes a critical loop between what’s planned and what’s actually happening in kitchens. It means our customers can reduce waste, control costs, and improve operational performance using real, actionable data within the workflows they already rely on.”

Stephen Nolan | CEO, Nutritics
