About The Upcycled Food Association
Upcycled Food Association (UFA) is a nonprofit focused on reducing food waste by growing the upcycled food economy. It was created in 2019 by upcycled food companies themselves, who recognized the power of collaboration in growing a successful food category and environmental movement.
What We Do
Through research, strategy, networking, and policy advocacy, Upcycled Food Association is building a food system in which all food is elevated to its highest and best use. UFA is comprised of Members and Associate Members from around the world.
UFA is leveraging market forces to prevent food waste by coordinating hundreds of companies around the world and empowering millions of consumers to prevent climate change with the products they buy.
UFA accomplishes this mission through four objectives:
1. Attracting more investment to the upcycled industry
2. Improving the upcycled business network
3. Improving the upcycled supply chain
4. Increasing consumer demand for upcycled products
