According to the data of the National Food Chain Safety Office (Nébih), 1.8 million tons of food waste is generated in Hungary every year, while a third of the almost 4 billion tons of food produced in the world is trashed.

An application developed in Hungary therefore set out to form a community approach to food waste: Through the application, canteens, menu restaurants and restaurant chains can also sell their remaining but untouched and high-quality food, giving them extra income and consumers get discounted offers and a variety of dishes. And the related online interfaces, which also include useful green practices, forge a community of users who care about the environment and our planet.
