Starbucks announce partnership with Too Good To Go: Save coffee and snacks from waste

 Starbucks is now cooperating across Switzerland with Too Good To Go, the movement against food waste. With their practical app, users can now save food as self-collectors in all participating Starbucks stores.

Responsible use of food is a high priority at Starbucks. The company is therefore now expanding its partnership with Too Good To Go also in  Switzerland. With the Too Good To Go app, Starbucks fans can save food from being wasted in a total of 49 locations, including 40 coffee houses in German-speaking Switzerland and nine in French-speaking Switzerland. With the app, food that is left over at the end of the day can easily be reserved as a surprise parcel in two options:

Option 1 (food): fine pastries, delicious sandwiches and snacks

Option 2 (Food & Coffee): in addition to pastries, sandwiches and snacks, this option contains coffee beans, coffee capsules or instant coffee. The content of the order can vary - depending on what can no longer be sold regularly that day. The products cost around a third of the original price.

Together against food waste

After successful cooperation in six countries, Starbucks is pleased to be building on the previous initiatives to prevent food waste in Switzerland: 

“The Starbucks store managers handle their online product orders with great care and with precisely allocated product quantities for each coffee house in order to avoid waste. Any remaining fresh products that would otherwise have to be disposed of can now be easily saved from waste using Too Good To Go. " - says Bernardin Malou, General Manager Starbucks Switzerland and Austria.


Too Good To Go is also enthusiastic about the partnership: 

“We are delighted that Starbucks has joined our growing network of over 2,900 partner companies in Switzerland. Food waste has an enormous impact on the environment. Every coffee or snack saved helps to counteract this, » says Alina Swirski, Country Manager of Too Good To Go Switzerland.
