Too Good To Go is looking for a new Sales Manager Out Of Home
We are Too Good To Go, a certified and proud B-corp with a clear mission: to inspire and motivate everyone to take action against food waste 🌍. Currently, ⅓ of all food disappears into the trash. That has to stop! We were founded in 2015 in Denmark and currently operate in 17 countries. In 2018 we started in the Netherlands and now our team consists of over 50 'Waste Warriors'. With over 3.5 million app downloads in the Netherlands and around 9,000 partners, we are working hard to create a world without food waste. In fact, in 2022 we were voted the most inspiring organization in the Netherlands for the fourth time in a row!
📲 You probably know us from our app, where we offer leftover food and drinks from supermarkets, restaurants, suppliers, cafes, bakeries, hotels and specialty stores, among others, to users of our app. In this way, we have already saved over 17 million meals from the trash in the Netherlands. Worldwide, the counter already stands at more than 199+ million, which is the CO2 equivalent of the annual emissions of 53,000 Dutch people. Now that's making an impact.
