The 3-year Gelderland of Tomorrow programme recently concluded. On Thursday 12 September 2024, the final results were proudly presented. During this programme, 132 Gelderland entrepreneurs (supervised by Greendish) from the hospitality, care, catering and retail sectors worked on making their food supply more sustainable with the focus: less food waste and a higher share of vegetable versus animal proteins in the supply.
In Jan 2022, we started recruiting participants. In July 2024, we completed the programme with the last participants. In total, we worked with 153 participants, supervised 132 of them intensively and received from 121 all the data on which the results are based.
Together, we saved 1.7 mln kg of CO2eq from 121 participants. In addition, 114,681 KG of food saved from the dustbin, collectively saving participants 802,764 euros. A great result!
