Solution

The HopHopFood App enables solidarity stores to make their unsold products available to people in a state of food insecurity. These people use an access code to reserve products, then go directly to the stores to collect these free baskets. Beneficiaries are self-sufficient, and products usually banned from food aid collections (meat, fish, etc.) can finally be saved from wastage and given to people in need. 

The retailer, for his part, values his donations at 60% of their ex-VAT value, thanks to the in-kind donation certificate provided by HopHopFood.

For the occasion, we went to eat at Splendido, the first partner restaurant in Marseilles, which offers 8 meals at lunchtime and 8 meals in the evening to our Marseilles beneficiaries. In the photo you can find two of our HopHopFood volunteers, Christian and Pauline, our AURA region referent, Martin Riehlet and our new recruit, Clémence Guiot.

Why we love it?

The power of a tech platform to combine the fight against food waste with the fight against poverty is an extremely effective formula! Let's take resources from where they are and redistribute them to those in need.

"I dreamed of connecting those who had too much with those who didn't have enough, to restore a balance."
