Transform your food waste into profit.
Attract Shoppers. Reduce Waste. Increase Revenue.
Gander is the first platform to automatically connect your near-waste, marked-down food to a huge, local audience that want it. Inspiring motivated shoppers to purchase this food before it becomes surplus.
Sell more. Waste less.
Sell-through Rate of Markdowns
On average, retailers who showcase their markdowns on Gander sell around 90% of those listed.
Decrease in Waste
After implementing Gander, retailers sell another 4 in 10 items meaning they are diverted from waste.
Increase in Margin from Markdowns
In addition to selling more product, Gander sells markdowns 40% faster meaning they sell at higher prices than before.
Showcase your markdowns to local shoppers in real-time.
Currently, your markdowns only reach existing footfall meaning you have to rely on shoppers sporadically finding them while already in store. With most markdowns overlooked, on average, half become surplus.
Gander enables you to showcase your in-store markdowns to a huge audience of local, motivated shoppers. Your markdowns capture thousands more views than before, ensuring more are sold and less to go to waste.

Food waste
takes a bite
out of your profits.
"On average, the value of wasted food in retail is equal to roughly double the profits from food sales."
Despite how alarming this statistic is, it may still be underestimated as evidence suggests that one-third of in-store waste remains unaccounted for, highlighting a critical gap in understanding and addressing the true extent of the issue.
