Food rescue non-governmental organisation (NGO) The Lost Food Project (TLFP) has provided five million meals to charities and B40 families since its inception in 2016 until the end of last year.

As an independent food bank, TLFP works with wholesalers, food manufacturers and numerous supermarkets to “rescue” quality, nutritious surplus food as well as non-food items from going to the landfill, and redistributes them to those in need.
