THE GREAT NPO THAT FIGHTS FOOD INSECURITY

We fight food waste

Approximately 30% of food is lost or wasted in Canada. It would be practically one in three foods*!

In a context where the actors and initiatives to reduce waste are still insufficient, we recover unsold fruits and vegetables and offer Montrealers a responsible solution for grocery shopping.

We fight against food insecurity

Did you know that food banks are helping a record number of workers whose wages are not enough to feed themselves*? The face of vulnerable populations has changed!

For each panier anti-gaspi purchased, we donate its equivalent in weight to a community organization.

MISSION SALTO HAS BECOME IMPROOVE

In December 2021 and faced with the quantities of surplus fruits and vegetables, John decided to launch Mission SALTO, with Raphaël and Aurélie.

The pilot project has since become Improove, a social economy enterprise (2022) ready to challenge the quantity of food wasted each year in Canada and redistribute it to community organizations in need.
