Reducing Food Waste, One Parcel at a Time.

Too Good To Go Parcels is a platform that connects consumers with surplus food from restaurants, cafes, and food manufacturers. The platform uses a unique algorithm to identify surplus food and match it with consumers who are willing to buy it at a discounted price.

What is Too Good To Go Parcels? Too Good To Go Parcels is a digital platform that aims to reduce food waste by connecting consumers with surplus food from various sources. The platform was founded in 2016 by two entrepreneurs, David Keane and Dominic Cadbury, with the goal of reducing food waste and promoting sustainable food systems. ### How Does it Work? Here are the key steps involved in the process:

The platform partners with restaurants, cafes, and food manufacturers to identify surplus food. The surplus food is then listed on the platform, along with its price and availability. Consumers can browse the listings and select the surplus food they want to buy. Once a consumer has selected their surplus food, they receive a notification with the details of the purchase. The consumer can then collect their surplus food from the designated location.

£1.5 million has been allocated to support the collection of surplus food from farms, which will be sold to food waste reduction businesses.

How the New Retail Channel Works

The food waste reduction business then collects the surplus food and sells it to consumers, reducing food waste and generating revenue.
