HUGE APPETITE FOR DONATING THEIR EXCESS FOOD. NOW WE ARE ON A
JOURNEY, FROM JAMMU KASHMIR TO KENYAKUMARI , TO FIND CHARITIES THAT
CAN GIVE THIS FOOD A GOOD HOME.
Access food
The problem
30% people in India suffer from food poverty, and at the same time, one million tones of food is wasted. In fact, India is worst waster of food in World. Supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and caterers contribute significantly to this figure. This isn’t their fault, it’s just that uncertain demand means that good food goes unsold. Disposing of food adds to the already high costs of running their business.
The solution
There are many wonderful organizations helping the needy in every town in India. On the other hand food businesses often have good food that they haven’t served at the end of the day. Often businesses and charities are unaware that they can help each other. To solve this problem, Accessfood brings them together in order to reduce both food waste and food poverty. We do this with the use of a snazzy app, legal contracts and a network of businesses and charities willing to restore some of that old Indian community spirit based on shared food.
Short Clip
What we Do

The interested association may, upon acceptance of the issuer, pick up the food donation on location.
Environmental Impact

The equivalent to 1.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide every year
If we stopped wasting food it would be the equivalent to taking 1 in 4 cars off the road
Food in landfill generates methane -one of the most harmful greenhouse gases

Story
I was born rise and study in india In 2014, I graduated with Engineering After I quit my job on the first day, I took off to Rostovondon. While working
in Russian organization for 3 months, I identified 3 key problems, which laid the foundation of Accessfood. The three "Why's" of Accessfood.
Traditional models of donations and charity do not create an impact if there is no capacity building within the community. For example, more then 40 % of food goes into waste and same while so many are unable to enjoy its benefits
Projects are not inclusive, the community was never asked about their actual needs & wants, and hence the accountability and ownership for these projects are very poor.
Accessfood allows food professionals to provide, through internet, supplies of unsold but still edible food to charitable to feed the peoples don’t have enough to fulfill their hunger needs.
