Our passion is to reduce commercial food waste

We simplify the local food distribution channel by meshing supply and demand. 

Our Story

FoodMesh was created in response to a desire to solve a global problem:
Avoidable food waste and food insecurity.

The journey began in October 2015 after co-Founders Jessica and Francisco came across photos of beautiful edible produce headed to waste streams because they were too ripe for retail.

Unable to shake these images, they dedicated the next 6 months to investigate the root causes and scale of the food waste problem.

It became clear that the problem is efficient re-distribution for unpredictable off spec product.

This led to the seeding of FoodMesh - a solution to power the circular economy for surplus food using network effects.

The self-serve platform is designed to simplify food re-distribution by matching demand and supply in a more efficient and intelligent way.

Today, FoodMesh has successfully provided hundreds of thousands of meals to people
and has saved over a million dollars in food value by companies using our platform.

Our Network

Our mission is to inspire change and connect. 

It's in our name.

We provide the platform to “mesh” together a network of investors, progressive businesses, growers, processors, and charities committed to changing status quo.  

We have leveraged our large network base to come together and create a solution that benefits all stakeholders.
