Gander is proud to announce its nomination for The Earthshot Prize 2025, an accolade that celebrates groundbreaking solutions to the world’s most pressing environmental challenges.

It marks the food waste reducer’s third opportunity to compete for the prestigious prize, reaffirming its role as a global leader in waste reduction and sustainability. The prize, spearheaded by Sir David Attenborough, Prince William and The Royal Foundation, is built around five ambitious goals that aim to make the planet a cleaner place to live.

Ricardo Salazar, CEO of Gander Brazil, highlighted the need for Gander’s mission: “The urgency of transforming our efforts to reduce food waste is clear. Gander’s technology enables retailers to reach more consumers, ensuring perfectly good food is sold and consumed rather than wasted. This benefits everyone - retailers maintain their margins, consumers access affordable food, and the resources used in food production are preserved.”

Since its launch, Gander has saved an impressive 38.9 million food items from waste. Operating in the UK, Ireland, Australia and Brazil, the platform has become a global force for sustainability, leveraging local data feeds to connect consumers with reduced-price food in real time.
