Y Waste App Details
With a focus on food retail Y Waste's purpose is to reduce both food insecurity and the negative environmental and economic impacts of food wasteThe Y Waste app has developed its own mobile API for secure in-app payment transactions, independent from established payment solutions Y Waste app is both a social enterprise and fin-tech application which allows business/caterers and retailers to connect with consumers on their last minute food and stock wastage with consumers in the local area to purchase or donate and ensure less food that is perfectly fine for consumption is thrown into landfill unnecessarily and also allows business and consumers to think and engage in other environmentally sustainable conversations and actions such as bringing their containers to reduce plastic waste as well as food waste and create a local community between consumers and merchants over food and food waste.1/3 of the food which is thrown out, 80% of it is purely unsold. We address both merchants who have goods to sell/donate and a growing market which is becoming more saavy and aware and willing make adjustments in their behaviour to reduce this waste as well as educate others
