OLIO - The Food Sharing Revolution
OLIO is a free app that connects neighbours with each other and with local independent shops so that surplus food can be shared, not thrown away. This could include food nearing its use-by date from shops, cafes and markets; spare vegetables from the allotment; cakes from an amateur baker; or groceries from household fridges when people go away or move home.
To access the app, users simply snap a picture of their items and add them to OLIO. Neighbours then receive customised alerts and can request anything that takes their fancy, and arrange pick-up from home, the store, an OLIO Drop Box, or another agreed location.
OLIO is available to use in 38 countries incl. throughout the EU, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand & South Africa.
The app can also be used for other household items such as toiletries, cosmetics, cleaning products, kitchen equipment, clothing, furniture & more.
