It is estimated that 40% of food in the United States goes to waste, while at the same time 44 million people across the country experience food insecurity. Flashfood’s mission is to solve these connected problems and feed families, not landfills. Flashfood operates an app-based marketplace that connects shoppers with huge discounts on fresh produce, meat and other high-quality groceries either in surplus or nearing their best-by date, helping to reduce food waste at grocery stores while making fresh food more affordable and accessible. Flashfood was founded in 2016 at one grocery store in Canada, and today is available in more than 2,000 stores across North America, saving its shoppers more than $200 million dollars on groceries and diverting more than 100 million pounds of food from landfills. Flashfood believes every family deserves to eat well, without compromise.
