a second chance for our food

Nothing is perfect - not our jobs, not our CVs, and not our bodies. Only our food is expected to be as standardised and attractive as possible. Why is that? On.perfekt is stepping up to overturn this common misconception. Our visiShow more

What is this project all about?

We are making rescued food socially acceptable.

Wonky carrots, oversized courgettes, tiny strawberries: We want to give food a second chance and are starting the first On.perfekt shop in Luxembourg, where otherwise abandoned food is being sold. We are offering our support to local and regional producers by lending our hand during the harvest or paying a financial compensation for the products received.
Furthermore, we rescue sorted-out goods from retail (e.gShow more

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

We are turning food rescue into a tangible reality.

On.perfekt has three clear goals: To reduce food waste, to actively support food producers in the distribution of this food, and to educate consumers about the extent of the problem.

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

Creating value where others assume trash.

If you want a shop, you have to pay rent, if you need labour, you have to pay (fair) salaries.

All in all, this round of financing is needed to ensure that we can cover our fixed costs for the first year of operation and stem the expected growth.

Despite, or perhaps because oShow more

Who are the people behind the project?

On.perfekt is a cooperative (société coopérative), which means that it is owned and managed by its members.
We have also recently been recognised as a social enterprise. With this, we commit to investing 100% of our profits in the realisation of On.perfekt's ecological and social goals.
Social enterprises, unlike an association (asbl), have the right to trade and generate regular income. They, by definition, combine economic activity with a social or socialShow more
