Lidl Germany Introduces Food Waste ‘Rescue Bags’
Lidl is aiming to reduce food waste across its stores with the introduction of ‘rescue bags’, consisting of imperfect fruit and vegetables that would normally be thrown out.
The retailer will begin rolling out the bags, priced €3 each, in stores from May of this year.
In a statement, Lidl said that it has had a long-time involvement in preventing food waste and is now taking what it describes as ‘the next logical step’.
The company is seeking to reduce food losses and organic waste across its business by 30% by 2025.
