Mission
Graya’s mission is to fight food waste and reduce its environmental impact by helping food businesses give a second life to unsold products instead of throwing them away. Through technology, Graya promotes a more sustainable consumption model, reduces unnecessary CO₂ emissions linked to food destruction, and encourages responsible habits while making quality food more affordable for local communities.
Solution
Graya is a mobile platform that gives a second life to unsold food products from restaurants, bakeries, supermarkets, and food businesses. Through geolocated offers and surprise baskets, consumers can buy quality food at reduced prices instead of letting it go to waste. Our solution helps businesses reduce financial losses, lower unnecessary waste, and actively contribute to a more circular and environmentally responsible economy.
Success story with Orange
Graya leverages Orange Money as a key payment solution to make food rescue more accessible, seamless, and inclusive for users in Côte d’Ivoire. By integrating mobile money into our platform, we simplify transactions between consumers and food businesses, even for users without traditional banking access. This collaboration opportunity with Orange strengthens financial inclusion while supporting a more sustainable consumption model. Orange’s digital ecosystem and connectivity solutions play an important role in enabling Graya to scale its environmental and social impact across Africa.
Impact
Graya creates environmental, social, and economic impact by reducing food waste and giving unsold food products a second life instead of letting them be destroyed. Our technology helps lower unnecessary waste and contributes to reducing CO₂ emissions linked to food production and disposal. At the same time, Graya supports local food businesses by reducing financial losses while helping students and low-income communities access affordable quality food. Through technology, we are building a more sustainable, inclusive, and circular food ecosystem in Africa.
