OUR STORY
Turning Challenges Into Opportunities
Indonesia discards 23 to 48 million tons of products every year, valued at approximately USD 39 billion. Around 39.28% of this waste comes from food.
Demand for near-expiry, overstock, and imperfect products is growing rapidly. However, there is still no large-scale solution that connects these goods with buyers.
Surplus Indonesia fills this gap by helping businesses recover the value of unsold products and by reducing environmental impact. This creates a positive outcome for both business growth and the planet.
VISION & MISSION
To be the leading recommerce platform, driving progress toward ending hunger, promoting responsible consumption, and combating climate change.
- Support Zero Hunger (SDG 2): Reduce food waste and redirect surplus goods to communities, ensuring more people have access to affordable, quality products.
- Promoting Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8): Enable inclusive economic opportunities by helping businesses recover value from surplus goods while creating decent jobs across the circular economy.
- Promote Responsible Consumption (SDG 12): Enable businesses and consumers to choose sustainable options by rescuing, reusing, and repurposing surplus goods.
- Act on Climate (SDG 13): Cut greenhouse gas emissions by minimizing waste and promoting a circular economy that benefits both people and the planet.
