Phood Solutions

Phood Solutions is a New York City-based food-waste technology company founded in 2015 by Luc Dang and Nick Kruczek.

The platform reports product-level margins, recommends demand-based production volumes, and helps operators cut food waste by up to 50 percent, reduce kitchen labor, and lower food-inventory costs. Phood also offers Phood Lab, custom digital solutions built by its food technologists. The company is backed by Techstars. Phood publishes no public API or developer program at this time.
