What We Do

Driving Systemwide Change

In the U.S., a staggering 35% of all food goes unsold or uneaten – almost 90 billion meals’ worth of food annually. It's valued at $418 billion, roughly 2% of U.S. GDP, and it has the same climate footprint as the entire U.S. aviation industry (passenger, commercial, and military).

ReFED is a national nonprofit that leverages a holistic view of the food system to collaborate with key audiences and generate large-scale, meaningful impact. Recognized as a leading voice for change, we accomplish our work by:

Leveraging Data & Insights

Food waste is a solvable problem.

From the release of our very first Roadmap to Reduce U.S. Food Waste to the launch of our new Insights Engine, ReFED has served as a definitive source for data and economic analysis on food waste and the solutions to fight it, with a trusted history of producing tools and resources that support action.

Roadmap to 2030: Reducing U.S. Food Waste by 50%

Research Current Policy

Food Waste Policy Finder

Policy is unique in its power to provide a spark that can move the food system to action, and throughout the last few years, a range of policies have been enacted to support efforts to cut the amount of food lost or wasted at all stages of the supply chain. Our Policy Finder helps you explore legislative and regulatory policies on the federal and local levels, best practices, and case studies – plus use the color-coded map to compare policies in different states.

Catalyzing Capital & Innovation

Food waste solutions offer environmental, social, and economic returns.

ReFED’s analysis shows that an annual investment of $14 billion – including $3 billion from catalytic sources – can reduce food waste across the food system by more than 50% each year and generate $73 billion in annual net financial benefit. It would also cut greenhouse gas emissions, save water and cropland, create jobs, and recover billions of meals for those in need. ReFED is driving this impact by empowering innovators and shepherding the capital needed to help scale solutions, with a suite of best-in-class resources and services.

A systemwide problem requires systemwide action.

That’s why ReFED is working to connect stakeholders from across the food system in mutually beneficial collaborations, through industry and sector partnerships, stakeholder networks, cross-sector events – including our annual Food Waste Solutions Summit – and more.
