Iceland is working with Olio on Lucky Dip nationally – rolling out our mystery bags across over 900 stores\u00a0<\/strong>\ud83d\udcaa<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are over the moon to announce that from today, Iceland is rolling out Olio\u2019s Lucky Dip bags nationally across 900+ Iceland and The Food Warehouse stores \ud83d\ude80\u2728<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each Lucky Dip bag costs just \u00a32, and is advertised on Olio\u2019s app. They contain at least eight grocery items (from baked goods to fresh fruit & veg, chilled meats or deli products) – giving shoppers great value AND driving down Iceland\u2019s overall food waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first retailer to implement Olio\u2019s full food waste tech stack<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This latest layer of our partnership makes Iceland the first retailer to partner with Olio on an end-to-end food waste solution that covers both discounting and redistribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combined with Reductions Feed (with Gander<\/a>) and our Food Waste Heroes Programme, Iceland has now implemented Olio\u2019s full food waste tech stack – for one powerful, streamlined approach to food waste via our centralised platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2022, Iceland has been working with Olio to redistribute any unsold surplus food to the local community when stores close. It\u2019s via this element of our partnership that they can make sure that no Lucky Dip bags go to waste. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, our partnership with Iceland has resulted in over 4 million kilograms of food being rescued and shared with people living near Iceland\u2019s stores. That\u2019s the equivalent of 9.3 million free meals provided to local communities since 2022 \ud83d\ude2f\ud83e\udd29<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So how does Lucky Dip work? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lucky Dip bags are listed on the Olio app, where users reserve them before heading into the store during a set collection window to pick up their bag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Any unsold or unclaimed bags are then collected by Olio volunteers and shared locally, making sure nothing goes to waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Olio community are LOVING Lucky Dip<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For our community, better access to discounted food is a huge<\/em> help in the quest to make the weekly food shop go further. Hear what they\u2019ve got to say: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcac \u201cI think this is a brilliant idea… I got just under \u00a320 worth of food that can last a few days.\u201d Olio-er from London, UK<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udcac\u201cOne bag I got was full of salads, muffins and potatoes, and the best one had loads of chicken and stuff that made a tasty meal.\u201c Olio-er from Manchester, UK<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hear it from Iceland\u2019s team\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Stuart Lendrum, Director of Product, Process and Sustainability at Iceland Foods said: \u201cOur Lucky Dip bags have already proven a great way for families to save money without compromising on quality. By taking the scheme with Olio nationwide, we\u2019re making sure every Iceland shopper can unlock fantastic value for just \u00a32 a bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis national rollout marks a huge step forward in our mission to cut food waste, making Iceland the first retailer to offer a truly end-to-end solution from discounting to redistribution.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026and from Olio\u2019s founders<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Saasha Celestial-One, COO and Co-founder of Olio said: \u201cWe\u2019re so excited to announce this latest layer of our partnership with Iceland Foods, and we\u2019re thrilled to launch Lucky Dip nationally across its stores. It\u2019s great to see Iceland adopting innovative new approaches to selling more discounted food – and showing such commitment to fighting food waste across their stores at the same time.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
