We rescue perfectly good meals that would otherwise be wasted. Restaurants list surplus near closing time; neighbours buy at fair prices. Less waste, more full stomachs — and a stronger local food economy.
Every night, as kitchens power down, trays of untouched, perfectly good food are thrown out — not for lack of quality, but for lack of a system.
At the same time, food insecurity is surging: in Toronto, one in four households faced food insecurity in 2023; nationally, surveys have found almost one in seven Canadians living in food-insecure households.

Day-end workflow that’s simple for kitchens, fast for pickups.
We focus on timing and proximity — the two biggest drivers of surplus matching.
Early traction shows behaviour change on both sides of the marketplace.
We only win when surplus is rescued and value flows to partners and communities.
A city where good food never goes to waste. We’re building the rails for a circular food economy — where surplus is visible, liquid, and valuable — turning waste into access and access into equity.
We are committed to driving tangible impact across these key global goals.
Affordable access to quality meals; community food security. We divert surplus to people who need meals now.
Target 12.3: halve per-capita food waste. Our model prevents end-of-day waste and monetizes surplus.
Nutrition, dignity, and fewer empty plates. People swap skipping dinner for real food at fair prices.
Lower food costs, better household resilience. Stretching budgets with quality surplus reduces pressure.
Access that meets people where they are. Local pick-ups and fair pricing improve access for everyone.
Local networks that keep food in circulation. Neighborhood-first matching reduces waste streams.
Less food waste → lower emissions. Prevented waste reduces methane and embedded resource loss.
Kitchens, communities, cities. We scale impact through partner networks and transparent collaboration.
