Oddbox delivers surplus produce leftover from local farmers to prevent food waste.

Back in 2016, Emilie and Deepak we tasted a delicious but ever-so-slightly ugly tomato from a market in Portugal. It struck us them that we only ever see aw identical-looking fruit and veg in our supermarkets, so we did some digging and learnt that around 40% of all food grown goes to waste.
 
When food is wasted, so is all the water and energy used to produce it – in fact, Project Drawdown has identified food waste as the third most effective solution to fight climate change.
 
We’re on a mission to make sure all food grown is eaten. With a pioneering ‘grower-led’ model, we rescue farm-fresh fruit and veg at risk of going to waste, then deliver to customers' doors overnight to reduce emissions. Too wonky? Not for us.

Since launching we've delivered over 5 million boxes–that’s around 35,000 tonnes of rescued fruit and veg. We’ve also supported more than 95 growers to find a good home for their produce and donated the equivalent of 1.7 million meals to charity.

Excellent idea! You get such a variety of fresh grocery’s (fruit and veg). I love that it’s sustainable and all very edible products that just can’t be sold as they are. 

I get the Co2-friendly delivery, but hate searching for where they left my box in the night 

More flexibility on box content would be great.

Love the brand and ethos. I look forward to my oddbox delivery every week it's always a joy to discover new fruit and veggies and try new recipes. The quality is great and I love that it saves so much food waste. 

Big fan of the brand and the founders of Oddbox. Incredible missions behind everything they do. Not only love their boxes to help prevent food waste but also to eat more seasonal

I like that you can exclude 3 fruits that you wouldn’t want. I have added a photo of the box received.
