30+

This Project Zero Healthcheck checklist helps retail and grocery stores assess waste control, product handling, and transfer processes. Verify waste cage key security, designated waste areas, acceptable fresh waste volumes, and department waste records. Check locks for high-value meat, unused RTC labels, and in-store bakery practices including use of pink waste bags, ingredient dates, and yeast rotation. Confirm ABP cage security and returns. Review produce waste recording, front-end put-back processes, and PLU list updates. Assess DOTcomm guarantees, Food Connection donations and colleague shop controls. Validate transfers across PFS, Costa machines, milk, free issue, bread sampling, and free fruit.

Project Zero Compliance
This document outlines a detailed audit checklist for retail store waste management under Project Zero initiative. It covers essential aspects including waste security protocols, documentation requirements, and colleague engagement. The audit examines waste cage security, key management, proper labeling of waste areas, documentation procedures, and colleague understanding of waste reduction processes. Special attention is given to department-specific waste handling, particularly in produce sections, and overall compliance with Project Zero guidelines. The checklist also evaluates staff awareness and implementation of waste reduction strategies, ensuring all store waste is properly accounted for and managed according to company standards. This systematic approach helps stores maintain effective waste management practices while working toward waste reduction goals.

Convenience Zero Healthcheck
This Convenience Zero Healthcheck checklist helps convenience store teams assess waste management and loss-reduction practices against What Good Looks Like guidelines. Verify waste cage setup and locks, cage liners, milk dolly sections for waste, damages and EPWs, and an SEL list for loose products. Check for clear, centralized warehouse waste, blue-bag trays for animal by-products in the freezer, and evidence of twice-daily scanning with no build-up.
