Description

KITRO is developing the first fully automated food management solution for the food and beverage industry. We measure and monitor food waste in order to increase operational efficiencies and decrease cost. By seamlessly integrating with existing workflows, we bring actionable items to the table, so that our customers can save valuable time and money.

We are a small and determined team, whose motivation stems from personal experience. Seeing food go to waste in the hotel and restaurant industry inspired us to bring an end to this avoidable waste. Action oriented and result driven, we take what we do seriously, but don’t take ourselves too seriously. We are not scared to laugh, experiment and fail because we are passionate about building a product that will bring back the value of food. Currently starting to bring our solution to the market, we are looking to complement our team with a driven, positive, and open-minded team member.
