Working on a story about food waste, surplus marketplaces, or the UK sustainability scene? Below is the boilerplate, key stats, and the brand assets we maintain. For interviews, embargoed copy, or anything not listed, write to press@sustaplates.com.

The boilerplate

Sustaplates is a UK marketplace that connects food sellers with surplus inventory to local buyers and registered charities — cutting waste, recovering revenue, and feeding communities. Sellers list discounted or donatable stock; buyers discover deals near them; charities claim donations and receive an HMRC acceptance certificate automatically. The platform is built by Axtelica Solutions Pvt Ltd, operated by Sustaplates Ltd, with all production infrastructure in UK / EU regions.
