SecondBite is committed to making a positive difference to people by identifying good quality nutritious food that would otherwise go to waste. They redistribute it to over 105 food relief agencies providing thousands of meals for people in need.

The food is sourced from a variety of areas across the breadth of the food chain including growers, wholesalers, retailers and catering and event companies.

Formally established in 2005, SecondBite was the idea of Ian and Simone Carson who decided they could no longer watch good food go to waste whilst people went hungry.

In 2009, SecondBite exceeded their goal of 600 tonnes of food, and collected and redistributed 700 tonnes.

The volume sounds impressive, but in reality it is a mere drop in the ocean, especially when you consider that over 11,500 tonnes is driven to landfill every month in Victoria, whilst thousands of families struggle to put a meal on the table.
