The Foraging Fox operates across Retail, Hospitality and E-Commerce on a contracted-out basis, outsourcing our product manufacturing to Contract Manufacturers under strict NDAs and warehousing with our warehouse teams. The team works nationally with major retail and hospitality wholesalers and also works with major e-commerce channels such as Amazon and Instacart (with affiliated retailers) to sell our products online. The Foraging Fox revenues are in the main B2B revenues. Why we created a sustainably sourced line of condiments: One third of all food is wasted globally, equating to 1.3 billion tons per year and worth approximately $1 trillion. All along the supply chain from farm level to factory, perfectly good food is thrown away for a variety of reasons from size to ripeness. Between 20% to 40% of all food grown each year never leaves the farm gate and our farmers inherit these losses mostly through surplus due to low market prices, high harvest costs, strict cosmetic standards and labour shortages leaving the majority of the crops to be left in fields to rot. The devastating impact of food waste motivated The Foraging Fox to develop a new line of products that will be sustainably sourced using surplus vegetables and byproducts to make shelf stable products that can be bought on shelf in stores or eaten in canteens, restaurants and dining halls. Our first line of upcycled certified products is a line of sustainably sourced Tomato Ketchups available in retail, single serve and bulk formats.
