McDonald's ties up with Enevo to offer full service waste management

It helped seven McDonald's locations to reduce its waste collection costs by 12% in six months.

Enevo now offers full management of waste services for restaurant, retail, multifamily, and commercial property operators throughout North America and key European regions after it received $12M in 2017 through its latest funding round. Led by Lifeline Ventures and international investors, the funding was administered to accelerate its waste services introduction in the U.S. Enevo’s SmartWASTE project also received funding through European Union’s Horizon 2020.

Using proprietary analytics software, Enevo account managers continuously monitor container sensor data to manage alerts, compare pickups against collection schedules and work with haulers to adjust service levels to meet actual needs.

Enevo helped a UK McDonald’s franchise with seven locations and 30% expected growth rate over three years to reduce its waste collection costs by 12% in six months.

“Enevo has made life easier for our restaurant operations, uncovering the waste and recycling volume at our locations,” said Jerry Nicholls, McDonald’s UK franchise owner. “With Enevo, we have much more reliable data to measure against recycling targets.”
