Company Shop stops
good food going to waste. Founded by John Marren over 40 years ago, they’re now
the UK’s largest redistributor of surplus products. Surplus stock is inevitable
in the food supply chain and we work with Britain’s biggest retailers,
manufacturers and brands, to ensure that wholesome, surplus food reaches
people’s plates.Comapny Shop redistributes surplus through a national network
of staff shops, standalone stores and ‘click and collect’ services, providing
great offers to members that work in the food manufacturing industry and
emergency services.Company Shop is stopping over 30,000 tonnes of food going to
waste every year and delivering great value to customers, colleagues and food
industry clients.In December 2013 Company Shop also launched Community Shop: to
ensure even more people, in disadvantaged communities, can benefit from the
model.
