Food waste
A Growing Problem
🇸🇪 Every Swede throws away an average of 33 kilos of food per year.
This means a cost of SEK 3 000 - 6 000 per family each year.
Money and resources that literally go into the garbage.- National Food Agency

💧 Water saving
Eliminating food waste would also save a quarter of all fresh water used in agriculture each year.
Impact on People
If we could reduce food waste by just 25%, it would be enough to feed the 870 million people who are currently starving, according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
🇨🇦 In Canada, almost 60% of all food produced is lost each year, equivalent to 35.5 million tons.
Of this, 32%, or 11.2 million tons, is fully edible and could help support people in our communities.
