At Stray Dog Capital, we are thrilled to announce our recent investment in Goodie Bag, a mission-driven company revolutionizing how we approach food waste. By connecting consumers with local businesses offering surplus food at discounted prices, Goodie Bag is tackling one of the most pressing issues in the food industry today.

Goodie Bag’s innovative platform allows users to purchase “goodie bags” filled with unsold food from restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores—at discounts of 50% or more. This not only provides consumers with high-quality meals at reduced prices but also prevents perfectly good food from being discarded. By doing so, Goodie Bag creates a win-win scenario for both local businesses and the planet.

Why It Matters

In the United States, an estimated 30-40% of the food supply is wasted each year, contributing to environmental degradation and lost economic value. Goodie Bag addresses this issue head-on by redistributing surplus food that might otherwise end up in landfills. This approach supports local businesses, promotes sustainability, and fosters stronger community connections.

Growing Impact

Goodie Bag is already making a meaningful difference in cities like Boulder, Phoenix, Madison, Charlotte, and Charleston, where its platform is gaining traction. We are confident that its model will continue to expand, driving significant reductions in food waste and inspiring more sustainable consumption patterns.

If you or your friends and family live in these cities, we encourage you to try out Goodie Bag and experience its benefits firsthand.

At Stray Dog Capital, we are proud to partner with companies like Goodie Bag that share our commitment to driving positive change in the food industry. We look forward to supporting their growth and witnessing the transformative impact they will bring to communities and the environment.
