Our top priority in food recovery is directing unsold food to the people who need it most. Doing that effectively with our retail customers will require actionable data, and that's why we're excited to collaborate with Feeding America. Together we're working to deliver insights that can empower grocery retailers to optimize their donations to local food banks. #ProtectingTheValueOfFood #FoodRecovery https://lnkd.in/eZQ9ySPU

As much as 100 billion pounds of food goes to waste in the U.S. each year while millions of Americans go hungry. We're determined to change those numbers and that's why we're thrilled to collaborate with Feeding America to scale data-driven solutions to move more excess food from retail grocers into the donation stream. Together we can achieve their goal of increasing food recovery by one billion pounds per year. #FoodRecovery #ProtectingTheValueOfFood https://lnkd.in/ed_AbiGd
