At Too Good To Go, we have an ambitious goal: to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste.

More than 1/3 of all food produced in the world is wasted, and that has a huge impact on the environment: 10% of greenhouse gas emissions come from food waste and loss. Through our marketplace app, we work with thousands of restaurants and food retailers to make their surplus food available to local consumers at a discounted rate. The magic of Too Good To Go has been spreading rapidly across Europe, North America and Australia, with more than 300 million meals saved globally and 90 million registered users.
