Regional Finance Business Partner

Too Good To Go is the world's number 1 app for fighting food waste. Why do we need to do that? Because more than 1/3 of the food produced in the world is wasted. And that has a huge impact on the health of our planet; 10% of greenhouse gas emissions come from food waste!

Our app has more than 95 million users, but we’re more than an app. Our mission is to inspire and empower everyone to fight food waste, so we’re doing all we can to create educational tools, make our knowledge as accessible as possible, find new business solutions and even change legislation to reduce food waste.

We’re growing fast with 19 countries currently active and more coming. But here’s what really matters: through our app, we’ve saved more than 332 million meals from the bin - Which is like avoiding the equivalent kg CO2e of flying 100,000 passengers around the world (myclimate, 2019)!
