Surplus is an app that enable food retailers or farms to sell their overstock/imperfect products at the window time at half prices to the customers. Surplus aims to avoid edible and untouched meals end up in the landfill and become food waste.

Impact story: Together, we’ve rescued around 4000+ meals or equals to 500 kg of food also avoided Approx 18 tons of CO 2 emissions in 1 year. That’s the equivalent of the emissions from 18 million pounds of coal burned. Also, during COVID 19 we help the business owner to financially recover for their business to survive by selling their overstock/imperfect product during the lockdown situation that occurred in Indonesia (the stores is forced by the Government to close their store early every day) since we have prevented around $4000 USD in losses for business owners who join the movement.
