What is it ?

Sorting and storage

Every product that arrives at Partage is weighed and scanned. This allows Partage to know exactly the state of its stock.

The commodities collected are:

  1. Manually sorted (fruits and vegetables) and classified as “ready to be redistributed” or “to be recycled” (such as slightly spoiled vegetables with which soup is made in winter)
  2. Stored in a dry, cold or freezing room depending on the type of product.

The rules of hygiene and safety applied in our food hall are those of the Cantonal Service of Consumption and Veterinary Affairs (SCAV).

Packaging / Repackaging

Orders are prepared daily for recipient institutions that place orders online.

Associations that cannot pick up their orders themselves are delivered.

Every day, nearly 50 associations and social services benefit from the redistribution of unsold goods by Partage.

In the wake of the covid-19 crisis, Partage began preparing food aid bags for people in difficult circumstances in Geneva in 2020.

By choosing to support the Fondation Partage, which is recognized as being in the public interest, you are making a concrete contribution to the daily support of people in difficult economic situations in the canton of Geneva.

There are a number of simple ways in which we can take concrete action to help combat food insecurity and food waste.
