Flashfood is thrilled to announce a major milestone in our journey towards transforming the grocery experience and reducing food waste—we’ve successfully raised $13,800,000 in our latest funding round. As the app dedicated to offering grocery’s best deals, Flashfood partners with retailers across North America, including leading names like Meijer, Kroger, GIANT, and more, to help shoppers access fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, dairy, and other high-quality foods at discounts of up to 50% off retail prices. Our unique model not only enables consumers to save money and access nutritious options but also plays a crucial role in curbing food waste; by ensuring surplus items such as seasonal produce, overstocked inventory, or products nearing their best-by dates reach dinner tables instead of landfills, Flashfood is actively contributing to a more sustainable future.
This significant infusion of capital will be strategically deployed to expand our network of retail partnerships—currently boasting over 2,300 stores—and further enhance our cutting-edge technology platform. As a certified B Corp and remote-first company, Flashfood remains committed to addressing social and environmental challenges while delivering measurable impact. The new funds will drive the development of innovative features that improve the shopping experience for our diverse community, bolster our capacity to reduce food waste, and accelerate our mission of making fresh, affordable food accessible to more families across North America. Since our inception in 2016, Flashfood has diverted over 130 million pounds of food from ending up in landfills, providing the equivalent of more than 100 million affordable meals and saving shoppers over $330 million in the process. We are eager to build on this momentum and look forward to the exciting opportunities that lie ahead.
