Berlin, Germany

At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste.

Why? Because more than 1/3 of the food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet. Did you know that 10% of greenhouse gas emissions come from food waste and loss alone?

As the world’s largest food waste-fighting app, we connect stores that have unsold, surplus food with consumers who buy and enjoy it. 

So far we’ve amassed a community of 68 million users in 17 countries that have saved more than 182 million meals from going to waste together. We are incredibly proud of this, but there’s still a lot more we want to achieve.

That’s why we’re more than an app: we are also a certified B Corporation and our mission is to inspire, so we’re doing all we can to create educational tools, make our knowledge as accessible as possible, find new business solutions and even change legislation to reduce food waste too.

We’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far, but did we mention the issue is huge? We are expanding our team as we speak. And that’s where you come in:
