Sustainability that makes money – this is how to do it right
Whether it’s a restaurant manager, a shift supervisor, or an employee who volunteered to “fill in the gaps” with suppliers — everyone can agree on one thing: no one enjoys manually typing data into a system.
That’s exactly why we developed our new feature, Zestt’s smart scanning tool. It’s a solution that turns one of the most tedious processes — goods receiving — into one of the simplest and most efficient.
So how does it actually work, and why can it change the way you manage your restaurant?
Stop Wasting Electricity and Water – And Save Big
A commercial kitchen chugs electricity and water, but you can save a lot with just a few small changes.
LED and Efficient Appliances: It might sound minor, but it saves thousands of shekels a year.
Water Sensors and Efficient Faucets: So you don’t waste water.
Regular Equipment Maintenance: When you take care of appliances, they work better and consume less electricity.
Green Menu = More Customers, More Profits
Customers like to know their food is not only delicious but also environmentally responsible.
Add Plant-Based Dishes: Cheaper raw materials, a wider audience, and of course – a plus for sustainability.
Smart Purchasing Based on Sales Data: So you don't get stuck with vegetables rotting before they reach the plate.
Market Your Sustainability Properly
If you are taking green steps – talk about it!
Talk to Customers: People love to support businesses with values.
Share with Green Communities: Partnerships with environmental organizations can bring you great exposure.
Green Labels: These show you are serious and give you an advantage over competitors.
How Can You Start Right Now?
Reduce food waste with proper planning and by using leftover products.
Switch to energy-efficient appliances to lower electricity and water bills.
Update the menu with more green and smart options.
Tell your customers about every green step you’ve taken—they'll appreciate it.
