Should we start up a factory for processing food waste?

  • 1

We all have to talk about food waste!

My friends are throwing away tons of tomatoes at the moment we are at peak of this season.

Should we start up a factory for processing food waste?

Honestly it pained me so much i have started processing the said tomatoes myself.

From Tomato powder to canned tomatoes to chutneys to Radishes…. what more can you make from tomatoes. and is there anyone you guys might know who might already be processing this food waste? on large scale.

Is there any one of you guys who might have a way to help me out on my quest?

    It is so sad and wasteful the way we throw away waste food. Waste food is such a pain because some people in other parts of the country can’t even access food and are starving. We can reduce the waste by even giving away the food before it goes bad instead of waiting on them to become waste. But nevertheless, we also need a company that processes these wastes into use. If we come up with ideas on how to make use of these waste, we will require more resources and capital to get on with the whole thing. For now we can give away to those who need before they go bad. Those selling shouldn’t wait for them to go bad,, they should give away before they go bad. Although with this point, I know most people will be waiting for that instead of actually buying. Typical of us. But that would have been better than wasting.

    I think it’s possible and can be a great opportunity. In low- middle income countries alot of food is wasted before it reaches the consumer. In high income countries consumers themselves waste food.

    And so if you can find multiple ideas of what you can do with the tomatoes which are thrown away before reaching the market you can start a processing plant.

    Freshbox, a company which provides farmers with refrigeration services for fruits and vegetables markets is also involved in making sure food from the farm reaches the consumer using their own innovative technology. They don’t process but they were able to tap into that opportunity.
