Using surplus bakery products in animal feed – and saving money.
Tesco and SugaRich have successfully worked together since 2012 to tackle the problem of surplus bakery products from stores, safely diverting 80% to animal feed, instead of to AD.
- The project is on track to use over 20,000 tonnes of bakery surplus per year to animal feed
- The collaboration has developed an end-to-end process to recover surplus bread as a safe, wholesome, nutritious animal feed
The savings and income have far exceeded the implementation costs and the scheme has now been rolled out across the Tesco estate to over 98% of stores.
SugaRich have been delighted to work with Tesco on such an innovative and pioneering project that has led the way in recovering former products from retail in to animal feed
