Finding finance If savings cannot be found by reducing waste as outlined in ‘Part 1. Reduce’, and there are no relevant ESG initiatives available to fund recovery, there are still a number of alternative funding options: Sainsbury’s and Greencore spotted the opportunity to use some surplus manufacturing capacity to create additional food at as low cost as possible. They then generated the funds to pay to make and redirect the food with an on- pack promotion which generated enough to produce one million ready meals. Multiple retailers, including Tesco, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s and Waitrose have participated in the ‘Let’s make a meal of it’ fundraising campaign, in which money is raised at the till to spend on sourcing and redistributing meals from surplus food.
