'Over a billion metric tonnes of food is wasted each year.
Food waste management is crucial — the issue currently contributes 10 per cent
of global greenhouse gas emissions at a time when 783 million people around the
world face chronic hunger.
According to the most recent UN Environment Programme's
Food Waste Index
Report, about 28 per cent of food waste is from food services.
Now, one Thai company is trying to lower that statistic.
Launched in 2021, Yindii acts as a food ordering service similar to Uber Eats.
Vendors sell leftover food that would otherwise be wasted at a heavy discount,
and customers can order a "mystery box".
Co-founder Mahima Rajangam said everyone won from the model.'
