Saveful Partnership

We are a proud sponsor and partner of Saveful, a practical, free app empowering people to reduce food waste by using what they already have in their fridge, freezer and pantry.

As a producer of food, we hate to see any food go to waste. Food represents time, energy and resources for our farmers, who work hard to grow our food. It also represents a significant cost to consumers. On average, every Australian wastes around 312 kilograms of food which can cost up to $2,500 per household per year*.

By starting with available ingredients, rather than the meal, the Saveful app turns the recipe rulebook on its head. Users can enter one or many ingredients and the Saveful app presents options to create meals or treats using the ingredients they have. The app also provides other handy advice which helps reduce food waste and save money, including use of seasonal produce, storage ideas and tracking of savings of food, money and carbon.

Our newly-designed Farmers Union Yogurt tub also contributes by doubling up as a reusable container to store leftovers in the fridge. Farmers Union joins the mission to minimise food waste by inspiring consumers to reuse their yogurt tubs to store their leftovers and use Farmers Union Greek Style Yogurt to reinvent their leftovers into something delicious.
