Today we are recording from the Too Good To Go UK office with co-founder Jamie Crummie. Too Good To Go, for those of you who don’t know, is an app connecting users to surplus delicious food from bakeries, restaurants, supermarkets, hotels and more.
Too Good To Go is rescuing 1 meal every second - so by the end of this podcast they would have saved roughly 2,700 meals from the bin. That is achieved by 14 countries across Europe, and over 19 million users!
Rather than talking about all of the facts and figures of food waste, and getting to brag about TGTG (which we would love to do!) we want to talk to Jamie about how equally important education is on the matter of food waste.
TGTG has a strong mission statement, but is backed by a whole team dedicated to tackling food waste through its four pillars: households, businesses, schools, and public affairs.
We want to understand how important it is for businesses to build supporting their mission into their DNA - and also understand how education can lead to long-term success with respect to a cause.
