Commercial Donors
No one likes to see food needlessly destroyed, least of all those in the food industry. We can provide a safe way for food to be redistributed to those in need that protects the donor’s brand and assures the product does not go back into the market.
Donation Process

Confirmation of reason for donation, volume, expiration, location, and warehousing requirements (dry, chill, or frozen).
-
We exchange a Letter of Agreement that spells out the basic responsibilities of the donor and Second Harvest Japan.
-
We will provide confirmation of delivery to one of our warehouses

Donation is delivered to agencies depending on needs of agencies and designation of donor.
