PRESS RELEASESSuper C and Too Good To Go team up to help Quebecers save money and cut food waste

Montreal, Quebec, April 9, 2025 – The discount supermarket chain Super C and the social impact company Too Good To Go are proud to announce a major partnership, offering Quebecers another way to save money at the grocery store and fight food waste. A year after its successful launch in over 100 Metro stores in Quebec, the world’s largest marketplace for surplus food is now deployed in all Super C stores across the province.

In 2025, 86% of Quebecers plan to take action to reduce food waste*, including buying surplus or imperfect products at the grocery store. With this partnership, consumers can now purchase unsold food for a fraction of the price.

Four types of bags are offered: fruits and vegetables, meats, dairy products, and baked goods. Each Surprise Bag is sold for a fraction of the price, and can be picked up between noon and 6 p.m.

“At Super C, we are committed to offering value to our customers every day, without compromising on quality. By offering these assortments at low prices, we are giving a second chance to products that are still perfectly good to eat, while meeting the needs of our customers who are looking for economical and responsible options.” said Loïc Cloutier, senior Vice-President, Super C.

This partnership announcement is a continuation of the success of the collaboration between the Metro banner and Too Good To Go, across Quebec and Ontario, having saved more than 750,000 kilos of food from waste since December 2022. Expanding to Super C strengthens METRO’s impact in the fight against food waste in Quebec.

“Partnering with Super C is an important step toward creating a world with no food waste. We are proud of the close collaboration that we have forged with METRO. To date, more than 1.5 million meals have already been saved in Quebec via Too Good To Go, thanks to the commitment of more than 4,000 local businesses. We are pleased to welcome the Super C team into our mission,” added Andrea Li, Country Director of Too Good To Go Canada.

METRO has been investing in the fight against food waste for several years, in particular with their price reduction program, which offers up to 30% discount on products nearing their best before date, or their One More Bite food recovery program. In 2024, more than 8.5 million kilos of food were recovered and redistributed to their partners : Second Harvest, Feed Ontario and Food Banks of Quebec.

The Too Good To Go app is available for free on the Apple App Store for iOS and Google Play for Android. To find out more about Too Good To Go and to find tips and tricks to waste less, follow the Instagram page.
