Join the movement against food waste! Did you know that 32% of the food waste in the Netherlands takes place at home? Lidl and Too Good To Go joined forces in the Netherlands to fight food waste. The goal is to save 73 kilograms of food per household per year, therefore saving up to 250 euros per year.
As a run-up to the Dutch ‘No waste week’, Lidl launched a new loyalty campaign where shoppers can collect and redeem against food storage containers. These containers come with a handy vacuuming function that keeps the food fresh for longer and a ‘month and date dial’ that helps shoppers remember when food is stored.
The loyalty campaign raises awareness amongst shoppers about the food waste crisis and teaches them how to minimize food waste. Tapping into shoppers’ needs, the campaign combines environmental concerns with cost savings.
