What Is the Goodie Bag App?

Goodie Bag is an app that connects customers with local businesses where they can purchase unsold food at discounted prices.

The contents of your bag are a surprise; you generally cannot choose specific items, which can be an issue if you have food allergies or picky eaters in your group.
You are required to pick up your food during a specific, often narrow window, which may not fit your schedule.
Because the food is considered “surplus,” orders can sometimes be unexpectedly canceled if the restaurant sells out of its regular inventory that day.

The Goodie Bag app allows customers to purchase unsold and surplus food from local restaurants at discounts of up to 50%.

The Goodie Bag app helps restaurants reduce food waste by turning surplus inventory into discounted mystery bags.

You can generate revenue from perfectly good food that would otherwise be thrown in the trash.
Selling surplus “mystery bags” introduces your brand to bargain-hunters who might not otherwise walk through your doors.
