Every year hundreds of thousands of tons of food are thrown into Swedish grocery stores. Whywaste works on the idea that it can be environmentally friendly and save money at the same time.

All industrial food production has an impact on the environment, through production, transportation, and storage. To take care of what is produced to the maximum extent is necessary if you want to reduce climate impact.

Whywaste offers digital systems that help shop staff to more easily identify goods that risk passing their best-before date. The food can then be pruned, cooked or donated for charity purposes instead of getting into the bin.

We cooperate with food stores from several of Sweden's leading chains in order to achieve increased sustainability with regard to the environment.
