Audit Success Story

Regional Food Processing Facility

The Challenge

A 200,000 sq ft food processing facility was spending $380,000 annually on waste disposal while facing increasing regulatory pressures and sustainability goals.

Audit Findings

  • • 85% of waste was recyclable organic material
  • • Poor separation practices increased disposal costs
  • • No documentation for regulatory compliance
  • • Missed revenue opportunities worth $120K/year

Results After Implementation

Annual cost savings:$285,000
New revenue generated:$95,000
Waste diversion rate:92%
Payback period:4.2 months
