Approximately ten businesses will be chosen to compete in the challenge and gain access to resources, support, and services to aid them in implementing effective strategies for waste reduction. Upon completion, one business will be selected to receive a cash prize of $5,000 and recognition as SBN&#8217;s &#8220;Food Saver Champion,&#8221; along with other benefits.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1007435\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89.jpg 2280w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-89-1900x1267.jpg 1900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1007427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80.jpg 2280w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80-2048x1364.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.sbnphiladelphia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/SBN-Food-Saver-Challenge-Launch-Event-80-1900x1265.jpg 1900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">After learning more about the challenge, guests were treated to a tour of the expansive warehouse of the <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/phillyfreshproduce.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Philadelphia Wholesale Produce Market (PWPM)<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, one of the largest refrigerated facilities of its kind at around 700,000 square feet.
