Cerplus is on a mission to eliminate waste in our food system. This online B2B marketplace connects discounted surplus produce with food businesses in food service and consumer products. Farms and wholesalers list their surplus produce (fruits and vegetables that are typically cosmetically challenged ripe or simply in excess) food businesses shop for what they need and Cerplus handles all payments and coordinates deliveries. In the long term Cerplus wants to expand into other perishable food categoriesfor example meat and fish grain and dairyand replicate its model to locations outside of the San Francisco Bay Area.
