Phenix
Unsold-food management: consumer app, donations to charities and B2B redistribution
Phenix helps supermarkets, shops and restaurants avoid waste by selling surplus through its consumer app, organising donations to a network of 3,000+ charities (which also generates tax receipts in France), and redistributing non-food unsold goods. It serves about 16,000 points of sale in France and other European countries.
Our reading. Best for French supermarkets and food shops that want one partner for app sales, charity donations and AGEC compliance paperwork.
