🌟 Join Us in the Fight Against Food Waste: Nesnězeno Expands to Liberec! 🌟 We're excited to announce that in June, Nesnězeno has expanded to its seventh region in the Czech Republic: Liberec! Partnering with major brands like PENNY Česká republika, our mission is to empower consumers, cafés, restaurants, and food retailers to prevent unnecessary food waste. 🚀 Why This Matters: - Environmental Impact: Czechs waste 1.9 million tons of food each year.

By expanding to regions like Liberec, we ensure that people in smaller communities can also participate in reducing food waste and enjoying discounted, quality food. 📈 Liberec Partnership Highlights: - PENNY Collaboration: With PENNY, we've already saved over 100,000 food packages in the Czech Republic, equivalent to more than 350,000 tons. We're also proud to be making a difference with PENNY in Liberec. - Diverse Local Partners: Join the ranks of Fabrica Restaurant, Nakraji, Mass.na, Spižírna, and many more local favorites who are now part of this initiative. 🌍 Together, Let's Make a Difference: Jakub Henni, co-founder of Nesnězeno, emphasizes, "Every saved food package and every new partner—whether a restaurant, store, or café—makes a huge difference. We're expanding regionally and hope that people in Liberec will join our mission to save food." Join us in creating a more sustainable future. Be part of the solution with Nesnězeno. 🌱
