The problem Surplus Food Management solves

The problem it solves is that almost 1/3 food produced is wasted every year. And millions of people die every year due to hunger. So there is an allocation problem and some system changes that are required.
We are giving the customers the food at a discounted price almost 50 percent in surprise bags where they don't know the exact food they would be getting but just the category like hot meals, bakery or salads etc.
After implementing the people who would be benefitting from it are:

  1. Consumer
  2. Revenue
  3. Environment

Challenges we ran into

The challenges we ran into are:

  1. Connecting problem (solved by our platform)
  2. Shops are just wasting the food or giving it for free to the people in such a way that it is mostly wasted.
  3. We also have the idea of promoting awareness on food saving techniques and packaging in such a way that the food is saved.
