App users can browse, reserve and pay for a Surprise Bag on the Too Good To Go app. Then, they go to the store during the pick-up window to collect their surprise.<\/p>\n<p>The content of each Surprise Bag purchased through the Too Good To Go app varies and users can expect to get a range of products, always at 1\/3 of the retail value. Depending on the store chosen, the bags can contain anything from ingredients like fresh produce or pantry items to ready-to-eat foods like tasty slices of pizza, pints of ice cream or baked goods. Buying a single Too Good To Go Surprise Bag, in addition to getting all that great food for a great deal, is equivalent to saving the carbon footprint from charging a cellphone 442 times.<\/p>\n<p><b>&#8220;Our team is proud to officially launch the Too Good To Go app in <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles<\/span>, because today \u2013 more than ever \u2013 our app is the best solution to different real-world issues&#8221;,<\/b> said <span class=\"xn-person\">Chris MacAulay<\/span>, Too Good To Go US Managing Director. <b>&#8220;In a reality where food prices are a huge challenge for people, Too Good To Go offers a meaningful and sustainable alternative to get delicious food at accessible prices all while slowing global warming through the reduction of food waste, which accounts for 10% of all GHG emissions globally.&#8221;<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Fighting food waste is the fastest way to slow global warming. Today, 40% of all food in the US ends up in landfills, creating a massive impact on the environment. Added to that, food goes wasted, in a world where 870 million people go hungry every day. Additionally, food waste is valued at <span class=\"xn-money\">$1 trillion<\/span> a year globally, with an economic impact in the US of more than <span class=\"xn-money\">$285 billion<\/span>. That is why fighting food waste is a crusade with positive impacts at different levels: environmental, economic and social.<\/p>\n<p>Too Good To Go presents a great alternative for businesses with surplus food. The marketplace app helps its partners contact more users, find a new showcase for their products, and reduce their losses, optimize their resources, and play an important role in the food rescue ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<b>Too Good To Go is a service we wish existed years ago&#8221;<\/b>, shared <span class=\"xn-person\">Jordan Hardin<\/span>, Director of Food and Beverage for <span class=\"xn-person\">Alfred Coffee<\/span>. <b>&#8220;We are excited to partner with his team to help further eliminate food waste in <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles<\/span>, be a more sustainable company, and connect with and serve our customers in a deeper and more impactful way.&#8221;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>&#8220;All food establishments should consider partnering with Too Good To Go&#8221;,<\/b>\u00a0said <span class=\"xn-person\">Raymond Martherus<\/span>, Director of Marketing at <span class=\"xn-location\">Lassen&#8217;s<\/span> Natural Foods &amp; Vitamins. <b>&#8220;Partnering with them has allowed us to save surplus food so it doesn&#8217;t end up as waste, while simultaneously driving new customers to our stores.&#8221;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-person\">Alfred Coffee<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Lassen&#8217;s<\/span> Natural Foods &amp; Vitamins, Tartine Bakery, Gelato Festival and many more are among the first wave of <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles<\/span> establishments to join Too Good To Go.

Globally, food waste contributes to 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and this trend is only getting worse, according to various international organizations.<\/p>\n<p>As U.S. inflation hits a four-decade high, rising prices in <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> \u2014 where costs of shelter and food are among the highest in the nation \u2014 are warping the fabric of daily life: Shoppers are cutting grocery budgets, businesses are scaling back operations and lower-wage workers are seeing their paychecks eaten away at the gas pump.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, value proposals such as Too Good To Go present real and long-term solutions to face the challenges of a rapidly changing world. The need to raise awareness of the climate change implications of food waste is crucial, while also offering simple, tangible ways for consumers to take action.<\/p>\n<p>Following our launch in <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles<\/span>, Too Good To Go has further plans to\u00a0expand to many of the U.S.&#8217;s largest cities in 2022 and beyond.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wcag-arialevel-3\" style=\"display: block; font-size: 1.17em; margin-block-start: 1em; margin-block-end: 1em; margin-inline-start: 0px; margin-inline-end: 0px; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;\" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"3\"><b>About Too Good To Go<\/b><\/div>\n<p>Too Good To Go is the certified B-Corp, powering the world&#8217;s #1 marketplace for surplus food.
