First #results from #LOWINFOOD innovations🔍 🍎🍋🥒The startup Unverschwendet offers different solutions for surplus fruit & vegetables. At the beginning they encountered many difficulties, especially the logistics behind the restaurants. But they turned things around and decided to mediate so that the surpluses reached the producers. 🎯 Now they are able to save large quantities of fruit and vegetables, much more than they could before. They are very grateful for Universität für Bodenkultur Wien's support, as scientific improvement and sustainability are very important to them. They were able to improve the collaboration with #LOWINFOOD partner LEROMA GmbH and bring three different surplus products from their platform🥤. ▶️ Listen to Cornelia Diesenreiter and Andreas Diesenreiter about the implementation of the innovation👉🏼🎥 https://lnkd.in/dcSEjwPq #fruit #vegetables #surplus #farmer #producer #foodservice #reducefoodwaste #foodwaste #foodloss #sustainability #H2020FoodSis #H2020 Silvia Scherhaufer Elisabeth Schmied Gudrun Obersteiner Katharina Hofer Florian Casalino Marina Billinger Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna Luca Falasconi Claudia Giordano Pauline Panegos Eriselda C.
