Tackling food waste is a huge part of a sustainable future, and it’s an issue that can be tackled in many ways as our list of LOTI Heroes shows. Food manufacturers and restaurants are on the frontline of food waste and, unless you are someone like Doug McMaster at Silo, there’s a high chance that a lot of good food is being thrown out when it isn’t sold. Enter Too Good to Go, an app that connects restaurants and wholesalers with customers who can purchase unsold, perfectly good restaurant dishes and food products at a fraction of the price. Not only does it earn the businesses a bit of extra money, customers get a bargain meal or parcel of ingredients, and the end result has a positive impact on the planet. Now that’s a win-win-win situation. In 2023 alone, the business saved 121,686,720 meals from going in the bin through its food bag and parcel offerings for customers and its food management systems for businesses.
