Metafoodx will exhibit at the SHFM National Conference, taking place October 6-8, 2026, in Chicago, Illinois. Attendees can visit the Metafoodx team at Booth 76.


The Society for Hospitality and Foodservice Management's 47th annual conference brings together leaders in workplace hospitality, corporate dining, and employee experience. This year's program centers on the "Yes, And..." mindset, exploring new opportunities across foodservice, technology, and the modern workplace. Metafoodx sees food waste reduction as one of the most significant of those opportunities for corporate dining operators today.


Metafoodx at SHFM 2026


Corporate dining programs are managing fluctuating headcounts, rotating menus, and rising employee expectations. Many operators still rely on prep sheets and historical estimates to plan production. As a result, they have limited insight into which items are overproduced and which are actually consumed.


The Metafoodx AI Scanner gives dining teams accurate, menu-level data on food production, consumption, and waste. It requires no manual entry from kitchen staff. With this data, operators can improve forecasting, optimize menus, reduce overproduction, and lower food costs while maintaining a high-quality dining experience.


The same data supports sustainability and ESG reporting. As more organizations set measurable waste reduction targets, verified data helps dining programs report progress with confidence. Learn more about how corporate dining programs are meeting ESG goals.
