CLUSTER FOOD-SURPLUS-WASTE-2 · 33 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-01-25
Surplus food redistribution platforms
These are platforms that connect surplus-food donors — restaurants, individuals, garden producers, or food providers — with recipients such as NGOs, food banks, neighbors, or people in need, often including real-time listings, matching, or volunteer-based collection. The dated entries before the index start are spread across 2025-01 to 2026-07 at a low, intermittent rate, with two entries in both August and September 2025 and single entries in most other listed months, leaving several months without dated entries. Traction leaders are namma-share and AI-Powered-Smart-Food-Donation-Distribution-System at 1 star each, followed by secon-serve-connect at 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
