Solution

The HopHopFood App enables solidarity shops to make their unsold produce available to people in slight food insecurity. These people use an access code to reserve products, then go directly to the stores to collect these free baskets. Beneficiaries are self-sufficient, and products usually banned from food aid collections (meat, fish, etc.) can finally be saved from waste and given to people in need.

The retailer, for his part, values his donations at 60% of their ex-VAT value, thanks to the donation-in-kind certificate provided by HopHopFood.

Why we love it?

The power of a tech platform to combine the fight against food waste with the fight against poverty is an extremely effective formula! Let's take resources from where they are and redistribute them to those in need.

"I dreamed of connecting those who had too much with those who didn't have enough, to restore a balance."
