Olio

Olio is free app tackling the climate crisis by solving the problem of waste in our homes & local communities. Olio does this by connecting people with their neighbours so they can give away rather than throw away their spare food and other household items, and lend and borrow instead of buying brand new. They also have over 100,000 food safety trained volunteers who collect unsold food from local businesses such as Tesco, Sainsburys, Asda, Iceland and Holland & Barrett, and redistribute it to the community via the Olio app. Olio has grown to over 8 million users in 63 countries and its impact has been widely recognised, most notably by the United Nations who highlighted Olio as a "beacon” for the world, and by Vivatech who awarded Olio "Next European Unicorn". Olio is also a proud B Corp and signatory to the Better Business Act.
