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.
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
Plan quarterly tax savings
Understand projected deductions, deductible volume caps, and ESG reporting impacts so finance leaders can forecast the benefit of every new location that donates through Foodbridge.
How it adds up
Average $28K in annual deductions
Restaurants using Foodbridge recapture the deductions they previously left on the table. Our reports combine donation values, logistics expenses, and state-level incentives so your CPA can file in minutes instead of days.
Data based on 2023 customers donating at least twice per week. Individual savings depend on donation volume and entity type.
