There are over 2 billion people in the world who suffer from food insecurity. It doesn’t have to be this way if we consider that we waste over a third of the food that we produce in the world, while the food is perfectly edible, for reasons such as aesthetic or packaging defects, or because the food is about to expire. At Nilus, we have developed a digital platform that facilitates the sourcing of food products that are at risk of being wasted from producers and retailers, and we distribute them at 30% to 50% of their market price among soup kitchens in low income neighborhoods. We are currently operating in Argentina, Mexico and Puerto Rico, where we have delivered over 3 million plates of food to over 90,000 people. Since COVID-19 broke out, we have grown over 1400% between March and June. Nilus was incubated at the Harvard Innovation Labs and received an honorable mention in Fast Company’s 2019 World Changing Ideas. Its investors include Google, Siemens and Marriott.
