Annual Review 2025: More Fresh Kai, More Community Impact

The numbers are in – together we’ve set a new Kaibosh record From July 2024 to June 2025, our teams across Wellington, Hutt Valley and Kāpiti-Horowhenua distributed 900,521 kilograms of food to local communities. That’s the equivalent of more than 2 million meals worth of kai shared, while also preventing 2,386 tonnes CO2e of greenhouse gas emissions that would have been released if this food had gone to waste in landfill. What makes us proudest? More fresh whole foods rescued than ever before! 77% of all food distributed for people this year was fresh and nutritious, including: 🥬 57% fresh vegetables and fruit 🥛 13% eggs and dairy 🍖 7% meat This is a 10% increase in rescued fruit and vegetables compared with last year, meaning more people in our communities had access to the kind of fresh kai that supports their health and wellbeing.

But our commitment doesn’t stop with the communities we serve; it extends to those who work tirelessly to make our vision a reality. This is why we have made the conscious decision to pay our drivers the Living Wage, despite not being a certified Living Wage Provider.
