Tax benefits

Maximize deductions from every donation

FoodBridge helps restaurants capture the full tax value of qualified food donations. From IRS Section 170(e)(3) documentation to ready-to-file summaries, we turn community impact into predictable savings for your finance team.

Qualified valuations

Smart fair-market pricing

Upload menus or connect POS data and FoodBridge calculates enhanced deductions automatically, including cost-plus-half-profit calculations required for C-corp donations.

Audit-ready receipts

Compliance without spreadsheets

Every pickup logs chain-of-custody, shelter acknowledgements, and mileage so your controller has a single PDF packet ready for year-end filings or audits.

Strategic forecasts
