The problem
Stores that are partnered with us at Too Good To Go have to advise how much food they have in surplus, so we know what we can offer on the app.
Currently, there are two ways for the stores to do this:
1) Manually by going into our partner app every day and putting Magic Bags for sale.
2) Automatically use our weekly schedule feature. This is where the stores would advise the specific number of Magic Bags they will offer which in turn would be offered for sale on the app every week.
The question
How do we ensure we always save the maximum amount of surplus food from our partners, whilst exploring solutions that will support their concerns of not being in ‘control’?
Context and considerations:
Understand the average value of daily leftovers.
For example: average: Every day you will taste xxx products (representing €50), to create 3 surprise boxes
Too Good To Go is financed through a commission percentage charged to establishments for each pack sold,
Is there a connection between the stock of R and the stock of R in the app?
The dashboard shows the available packs.
Hypothesys
..." Businesses need a tool that shows all their stock to understand what their weekly waste will be and thus be able
to use The automatic supply schedule more safely and efficiently"...
My proposal:
I imagine it would make a lot of sense to connect a Stock shop + Stock TGTG
On the Shop side >
show in real time but taking the Shop stock related to the appUser side >
Flag countdown (it probably exists but I can't see it in the app) We can show users in real time, how many Boxes are left and general "Fomo" in sales.
