Reducing Food Waste: Ellie Suite Joins Trinico in Fujisawa City

In an exciting move for the local community, Ellie Suite, a popular bakery and chiffon cake shop located in Fujisawa's Tsujido, has recently registered to partner with the innovative Trinico app. Trinico, developed by the Quagga LLC, aims to reduce food waste in the Shonan area by allowing businesses to sell surplus food items directly to local residents. This partnership marks Ellie Suite's entry as the 52nd business on the platform.

The bakery also creates artisan bread using yeast prepared from seasonal fruits and vegetables, ensuring that each product is made with care and passion, reflecting the owner's love for baking.

Customers are warmly encouraged to enjoy the delightful treats that embody the owner's heartfelt dedication.

Trinico's Role

The Trinico app serves as a crucial platform that connects consumers with local shops across regions including Fujisawa, Chigasaki, Hiratsuka, Kamakura, Zushi, Yokosuka, and Miura. Its primary goal is to mitigate food waste by providing an avenue for businesses to sell leftover products to community members, promoting both delicious culinary choices and environmentally-conscious consumption.

By facilitating the sale of surplus items that would otherwise go to waste, Trinico plays a significant role in creating a more sustainable world, where the food that is produced is appreciated and consumed rather than discarded. The app’s model encourages community engagement while ensuring that surplus food stays within the local ecosystem.
