More than one third of the food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a massive impact on the health of our planet, with 10% of greenhouse gas emissions coming from food waste.
At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: To inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste together. We are the world's #1 app for fighting food waste and we work with thousands of restaurants and food retailers to make their surplus food available to local consumers. The magic of Too Good To Go has expanded rapidly across Europe, the US, and Canada, with over 300 million meals saved across our 17 countries to date. We also recently announced plans to launch Too Good To Go in Australia.
We’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far, but there is still much more to do, and that’s where you come in.
