Those donating surplus food can be individuals or companies such as food retailers, restaurants, corporate canteens, food photographers etc., and donations can take place on an ad-hoc or recurrent basis. For example, some supermarket chains in the UK, including Tesco,[2] the Midcounties Co-operative,[3][4] Morrisons and Sainsbury's[5][6] have piloted Olio as an 'online food bank' to donate food and to reduce their waste.
