Description

Too Good to Go is an app for reducing food waste.

It's operated by a Danish company which seeks to inspire and empower individuals to do something to stop food waste. The app consists of a platform connecting up households with businesses which have unsold food items which are about to be thrown out. The platform enables shops to put up various items for sale at a low price, so that households can purchase products which would otherwise have gone to waste.

On its website, Too Good to Go also has a collection of information materials on how to prevent food waste, including podcasts, videos and blog articles with tips.

Main results
  • 42,1 million people have signed up to the app
