Foodbank teams with Australian grocery retailers to speed food relief using quality control technology
A global food supply chain quality solutions company has helped Australian supermarkets streamline fresh produce donations to a major charity during the COVID-19 pandemic, while concurrently reducing the amount of food waste. iFoodDS and Woolworths were recognized as a Tech Innovation Award finalist for their work in streamlining donations to Foodbank by PMA Australia-New Zealand.
iFoodDS, through its Harvest Mark platform, has been working with Woolworths, Aldi and Countdown to improve the process of donating excess fruit and vegetables directly from the Distribution Centres (DC), particularly to Foodbank.
