Logistics company CEVA Logistics has announced that it has hit a significant milestone, having delivered 100,000 Too Good To Go parcels since the two companies partnered on a parcel service in November 2024.
By purchasing surplus items directly from brands, Too Good To Go offers a ‘reliable and sustainable retail channel that reduces the logistical burden of handling surplus food’.
Consumers can then purchase parcels directly via the Too Good To Go app and have these delivered straight to their door.
The MP for Kettering, where the Too Good To Go packing facility is based, Rosie Wrighting MP, visited the site to celebrate the milestone. She commented: “It is brilliant to see Too Good To Go and CEVA Logistics working together to provide a sustainable solution to surplus food, create jobs for local people and distribute an impressive 100,000 parcels in such a short space of time. Tackling food surplus is so important – nobody wants to see good food go to waste.”
Steve Barry, senior general manager at CEVA Logistics said: “Reaching 100,000 parcels shipped across the UK with Too Good To Go shows the power of collaboration in tackling food waste by driving sustainable change, not just in our local community but across the globe. MP Wrighting’s visit to our Northamptonshire operation underscores this milestone and acknowledges not only the hard work of our team but also the positive impact we can make together.”
Adding to this, Sid Baveja, vice president of operations for Central Europe at Too Good To Go, shared: “We’re really proud to have reached this milestone with our partners at CEVA Logistics. Globally, 40% of food produced is still being wasted, so knowing that we can successfully provide technology enabled solutions to manufacturers that help them manage surplus food items and redistribute them to consumers with convenient delivery is a promising step in the right direction.”
Amongst the manufacturers involved with Too Good To Go’s mission are Heinz and Tony’s Chocolonely.
A Heinz spokesperson commented: “We’re thrilled to see the incredible success of the partnership between Too Good To Go and CEVA Logistics, reaching the impressive 100,000 milestone for parcels produced. This collaboration underscores the importance of sustainable solutions in managing surplus food and reducing waste.”
Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Tony’s Chocolonely added: “Partnering with Too Good To Go has given us a powerful, sustainable way to manage our surplus and stay connected with our conscious consumer base.
“We’re proud to be part of this growing movement, especially as Too Good To Go Parcels continue to make a positive impact, having already hit the 100,000 milestone. This collaboration benefits both the environment and our customers in meaningful ways.”
