Problem
The food system generates significant waste, with substantial volumes of unused food being diverted to landfills. This practice contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and represents a loss of valuable nutrients that could otherwise support agriculture and create a more circular economy.
Solution

They intercept excess and unused food from the food industry, diverting it from landfills. This recovered food is then processed into valuable products, including livestock feed and organic soil amendments. Their approach aims to maximize the nutritional value of food waste, thereby reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.

The primary customers include agricultural producers, horticultural businesses, home and garden consumers, and food industry partners seeking sustainable waste management solutions.
