DHL donates to Ireland’s FoodCloud

[ February 28, 2023   //   Chris Lewis ]

DHL Supply Chain has made a donation to FoodCloud, an Irish social enterprise tackling the twin issues of food waste and food insecurity.

It will be used to fund the lease and maintenance of 11 vans. FoodCloud works with a network of Irish charities, community groups and retailers to collect and redistribute surplus food and the new vehicles will improve its transport capacity and enable more food to be delivered to those in need.

The donation is part of a new three-year partnership between DHL and FoodCloud which will also see the creation of volunteering and mentorship opportunities.

DHL Supply Chain will also be offering mentoring to FoodCloud, providing expertise on route optimisation, driver planning and emissions capture to enhance efficiency.
