Bonapp.eco is a Romanian tech startup that combats food waste. The company’s app, available on iOS and Android, connects users with local food retailers, including grocery stores, restaurants, shops, gas stations, bakeries, coffee shops and hotels. Through the app, users can purchase food that is approaching its expiration date, at a 40% to 80% discount.
Among the first partners to join bonapp.eco’s partner network in Bucharest are Accor, Cora, Foodpanda, PENNY Romania, Starbucks and Up (formerly named Chèque-Déjeuner), with further partnerships due to be announced in Q4 2021. Expansion to other cities in Romania is planned for December 2021, while roll-out across Eastern Europe will start in Q1 2022.
