Lucie Basch, Co-founder

An engineer, Lucie Basch started her career in the food-processing industry in the UK. Witnessing the scope of food waste in her branch, she quit her job and ​imagined a concept that would ​empower any citizen to fight food waste at their own level.

Because “collaboration is the new competition”, Lucie joined ​forces with ​a couple of young entrepreneurs in Denmark that had a similar idea and together, they created Too Good To Go. Lucie launched Too Good To Go in France in June 2016, with great success.
