🌍 Change is Needed in the Food Industry 🌍 Did you know that our global food system is responsible for 30% of greenhouse gas emissions, 80% of deforestation, and is the leading cause of biodiversity loss? As a player in such a high-impact industry, we have a responsibility and an incredible opportunity to drive positive change. Our goal is for every Gousto meal to leave the world better off, and our 2023 Impact Report shows just how far we’ve come: 🥕 42% Reduction in Food Waste With food waste down to just 0.44%, we’re aiming for a 50% reduction by 2030. 🌱 Lower Carbon Impact We cut our carbon intensity per portion by 8%, and our decarbonisation targets are now under review by the Science Based Targets initiative, bringing us closer to our climate goals. 🍲 Supporting Communities Through our partnership with Fareshare, we donated 201.2 tonnes of food last year -- that's nearly 500,000 meals for those in need. ♻️ Eco-Friendly Packaging 74% of Gousto's own label packaging is recyclable, moving towards our goal of 100% by 2025. 💪 Healthier Choices 36% of our menu is designed to be healthy, and over a third of all meals sold last year hit our healthy standards We’re just getting started. Positive change is achievable in the food industry and beyond... so let's get to work! 💚 Read our 2023 Impact Report in the link in comments 👇

Too much on your plate? 🍽️ You're not alone. Today's world is more overwhelming than ever, and according to our research, meal planning, grocery shopping and feeding fussy households is even more stressful for Brits than managing their finances. That's where Gousto comes in. We take on your mealtime mental load to make planning, cooking and eating dinner as effortless (and delicious) as can be. From unrivalled recipe choice to delivering quality and precise ingredients directly to homes, we do the hard work so you can focus on the best bit - the cooking. Now we're taking this one step further, inviting the nation to get their mealtime struggles off their plate and onto ours with a limited-edition plate range created in collaboration with Margo Mc Daid. The Off My Plate ceramic plate range is inspired by the nations' mealtime mental load with lines such as “No more forks to give”, “Smash avocados, not plates” and “Make linguine, not lists”. If you fancy getting your hands on one, head to gousto.co.uk/offmyplate and tell us what mealtime woes you want us to take off your plate.

From Dragon's Den to market leader🔥 In last week's UKTN podcast, Timo Boldt spoke to Jane Wakefield about pitching Gousto on the Dragons Den in 2013 and how the business uses technology to fuel growth, whilst staying dedicated to our customer and purpose. 🥗 Investing in tech has helped us build a market leading product. From the most meal choice to faster delivery, all at grate value. If you put your customer at the heart of your decision making to build a product you know they'll love, they will stay with you. 💷 Leaning on AI keeps us aligned to our purpose. We optimise menus for healthier eating and AI forecasting means we operate with minimal food waste. AI also helped us keep prices as low as possible for customers during the cost of living crisis. Lots has happened since the Dragons Den appearance in 2013 and there's lots to be proud of. But we're super excited about the huge opportunity ahead as we continue to innovate our product for customers and eat up more of the 1bn meal opportunity in the UK.

We’ve been proud partners with FareShare UK since 2020, helping to redistribute surplus food from our fulfilment centres to those who need it most. Now, we’re taking our partnership further by supporting leadership development at FareShare with funds from Gousto’s apprenticeship levy. This will help FareShare managers take part in Corndel's Leadership and Management Diploma, giving them the skills to lead strong teams and continue to make an impact in the fight against food waste. We’re really excited to take this next step with FareShare and continue making a positive difference for people and the planet! 🌍🌍
