Inspiring Peers and Competitors Changing the way an industry does business can be tricky , and it often takes the support of a major brand taking that leap forward before real widespread change happens . This might be the case with addressing food waste . In August of 2014 , rival UK retail chain Morrissons announced that it would be investing £ 19 million into improving its own supply chain , promoting fresh fruits and vegetables while reducing food waste to offer a better value against discount chains .
