Abstract

The call for papers for this Special Forum resulted in a very competitive selection of 37 being submitted. Afterseveral rounds of blind review, six papers were selected for this Special Forum. They clearly illustrate the challengesof carrying out research into sustainable operations and food waste reduction. They examine a variety of unitsof analysis and theories, which are embedded in different geographical contexts, and use a variety of analyticalmethods. What they all have in common is that they reveal just how applicable research aimed at finding solutionsfor reducing food waste is. In this introductory article, we summarize the contributions of each of these six papersto the literature.
