Overview

One-third of all food is wasted and the planet is suffering from that. Our challenge is to develop a product that can help local business reducing their food waste, gains the revenue and of course, saves the world! The project is a part of my final project at Le Wagon's web development boot camp in Tokyo.

Reasearch

We targeted the interviews on local businesses, small-medium size hotels, and restaurants. The goal is to find out the source of waste and what struggles the restaurant is facing to manage the wastes.

First, we cross-check with the restaurant on what type of food potentially generates the most waste apart from the customer's leftovers. We categorized into six categories









As you can see above, all of them are still eatable. The restaurants themselves don't know how to deal with it instead of dump it into the trash. They hardly find a channel to distribute because of an unpredictable amount, plus unmatched market needs.








Opportunity


How might we help distributes unwanted food and ingredients before it turns into the waste?







Solution

A marketplace that help restaurant owners sell their eatable ingredients to local household, other shops or giveaway to nearby food banks.








Rescue ingredients in real-time around your neighbor

 
As a Nomo's customer, you'll be able to help save food from becoming waste around your current area because we don't want you to create more carbon footprint along the way to pick up your order. On top of that, we also provide donating option to giveaway the ingredients to the local foodbanks.
