The Foodeez project helps manufacturers and distributors to get value from their production and sales, even when it has been kept in storage houses a long time, so long as it is still edible. Foodeez purchases these goods to de-brand and repackage, to then resell the stock to independent retailers. Food waste is reduced, and income is generated. Manufacturers, distributors, retailers benefit because there are working alternatives for goods they produce or own, and consumers benefit because the prices are affordable.

This case study has been created as part of Footprints Africa's work to build a comprehensive open-source database of circular economy initiatives in Africa. We are doing this in collaboration with the African Circular Economy Network (ACEN), as part of our programme to support the circular economy transition in Africa.
