Banca de alimente nu trebuie să devină un generator de risipă
Ionuț Porcaru, director at the Local Food Bank in Sector 6, discussed the importance of quickly redistributing food that cannot be used in time during a G4Media debate. The bank collaborates with nearly 100 donor partners and redistributes to around 110-120 organizations. He emphasized the need for rapid responses, especially for perishable items, to avoid food waste. The bank also addresses challenges in anticipating demand, which can lead to excess food. They track the needs of partner organizations to ensure proper distribution. Porcaru highlighted the importance of staff training and public education on reducing waste throughout the food supply chain.
