It's good for getting basics delivered every week. I have found that I'm buying less and less produce from them because it's more expensive than in the store. The fruits and veggies were good, the other products were great as well!

Our mission: Eliminate food waste and build a better food system for everyone. If food can be saved, we will save it. With every bite into a misshapen apple, short piece of pasta, or oversized egg we can shape our world for the better.

Imperfect Foods was founded in 2015 with a mission to eliminate food waste and build a better food system for everyone.

Business Model Imperfect Foods acts as an online grocer, taking the goods onto its balance sheet and making revenue on the prices sold to consumers. It does not charge subscription fees. Its margins are calculated by the difference between grocery sale revenue and the cost of sourcing and supply chain operations.

Italian food was the most popular cuisine worldwide, followed closely by Japanese. Pizza is unsurprisingly the dominant choice, along with other classic Italian fares like spaghetti and risotto. Japanese cuisine was a close second choice, undoubtedly led by the rise in popularity of both sushi and ramen.

Founded in 2015 and now boasting some 400,000 customers, Imperfect Foods claims to have recovered over 116 million pounds of food that would have wound up in the trash heap. It says its “farm to fridge infrastructure embraces all cosmetic imperfections like blemishes or irregular sizes for a less wasteful world.”

Oligopolies. An oligopoly is an imperfect market where there are a limited number of companies, though more than two, within that market space. These few companies might cooperate to set prices within the market, or, as with a cartel, one company may dominate and set prices that the other companies adopt.

Plant-based innovation is here to stay along with sustainable-driven food. There has been a slew of innovations with plant-based foods that is expected to continue into 2023.
