Food bank

  • Food banks are usually operated by charity.
  • They handover food to those in need.
  • They get a wide ranging set of different products.

Were we can help

  • We can help with the logistic headache that is to find a product for people with allergies and intolerances.
  • So far only the obvious "free from" is set aside.
  • We could help sort better the product that are not obviously matching those criteria.

Lesser important way we can help

  • It is often difficult to get similar foodbox at scale from a wide range of different product.
  • It could be possible to create better food box, with the data from open food fact.
  • Once the stock is better understood, an app could display what is in dire need at the local food bank (eg. not beans)
