City Harvest

City Harvest is a food redistribution charity, helping to rescue food, people and the planet. They work with all levels of the food supply chain throughout the UK and partner with farms and growers, manufacturers, retailers, wholesalers and distributors. When stock is either close to its shelf life, has been forecasted incorrectly, forms part of a development trial, has incorrect packaging, or sadly doesn’t make the grade or specification due to seasonal challenges, City Harvest ensures no good food is wasted by getting it to people who cannot afford to eat. City Harvest is fully compliant with food safety and distribution laws. 

City Harvest can organise logistics to collect directly from your farm, packhouse or company, at no cost to you. They have a fleet of 17 temperature-controlled Sprinter vans and two 7.5t trucks as well as having strong partnerships with third-party hauliers. They will often arrange a collection with 24hrs notice and will always be more than happy to return equipment back to you. 

They love to shine a sustainability spotlight on the social and climate impact that companies make by partnering with them. Their impact reports allow you to see the immediate effect to people and planet with case studies and statistics of who your food is supporting. They report on the number of kgs rescued, meals provided and kgs of GHG prevented.
