CTO of Yume Food here (https://yumefood.com.au), a startup in Melbourne, Australia working to divert perfectly good surplus food from going to landfill.
Our team identifies at-risk stock (packaging issues / overproduction / close to code) and uses an ML-based engine to match the produce with suitable buyers, and offers up to 80% discounts; stock is saved, buyers get discounts, no ecological issues, everyone wins.
About to hit 1MM kilos of saved surplus stock, gaining some good buy-in from big name food producers, which is really promising.
