Eradicating Food Waste Has Never Been Easier!
This women-owned, Dubai-based startup aims to utilize every piece of food waste to create an opportunity for every food scrap to become a solution rather than a burden on our society and environment.
The Waste Lab’s goal is to put an end to food waste through their interactive digital platform that enables users to use simple yet customized solutions for minimizing food waste and rewarding users’ eco-friendly behavior as a form of encouragement. Their solutions are super convenient for households and businesses, such as hotels and restaurants, and simplify the collection and separation of food scraps and leftovers from the kitchen, and composting or repurposing.
