How it works
One day at Rescato
A short-dated lot has hours, not weeks. Without Rescato it reaches the bin tonight; with Rescato it reaches a frying pan.
Seven forty in the morning
The store sets aside what expires
Before opening, the store uploads its short-dated lots: the tray of peppers, the pork loin that expires tomorrow, the courgette nobody picked. Perfectly good food that will not sell at shelf price today.
Five past eight in the morning
FRIS composes the box
Our AI reads that morning’s surplus, picks the lots that work together, and finds a real recipe that uses exactly those. It does not invent dishes: it finds them.
Half past seven in the evening
You collect and cook
Drop by the store in the slot you chose, or have it delivered. Ingredients for two, the recipe in the app, and under three quarters of an hour of cooking.
The box
What arrives at your door
Ingredients for exactly two people, chosen that same day from what was rescued. Every box carries:
Ingredients for one whole recipe
Protein, vegetables and a base. What you need and nothing else — no top-up shop.
The recipe, in the app
From real recipes, adapted to the ingredients available that day.
Three quarters of an hour at most
No unusual techniques, and no step that needs a tool you do not own.
At least 70% rescued
The remainder, when there is one, is a fresh top-up. Always marked on the label.
The bill
No small print
A €4 box with 900 g of pork loin in it raises exactly one suspicion: that the food is not worth that. Here is the bill for the box above, line by line, with the shelf price beside it.
Store pickup
Rescue price + €1.50
Home delivery (Uber Eats)
Rescue price + €1.50 + delivery
You see the exact price of each box before paying. It changes with what is rescued that day.

| Pork loin · 900 g | €6.30 | €2.00 |
|---|---|---|
| Red pepper · 700 g | €1.54 | €0.40 |
| Sweet onion · 500 g | €0.60 | €0.14 |
| Platform | €1.50 | |
| You pay | €4.04 |
The €1.50 platform fee is the only thing we charge: it pays for the app, secure payment and coordination with the store. The rest goes to the supermarket that rescued the lot.
For supermarkets
Your write-offs stop costing money. They start earning it.
A short-dated lot is worth nothing today and costs money to dispose of. With Rescato it sells, it is documented, and it brings the customer into your store.
We are closing the first pilot stores in Málaga. Write to tiendas@rescato.es.
Revenue where there is now a loss
A tray headed for the bin is worth €0 and adds a disposal cost. On Rescato it sells at the rescue price and the money goes back to the store.
Law 1/2025, documented
The law requires surplus to be managed before disposal. The dashboard produces the weekly report: date, product, kilos, category and disposition for every lot.
No new operation
Your team uploads the day’s lots from the dashboard, much like a stock count. We compose the box, take payment and notify the customer.
The customer walks into your store
Pickup happens in the shop, in the slot the customer chooses. Every rescued box is one more visit and a basket that can grow.

Questions
What everyone asks
Why is it so cheap?
Because the store already paid for that ingredient and will not sell it at shelf price today. It is rescued at a reduced price, and you pay that plus a €1.50 platform fee. This is not a donation or a subsidy: it is the market price of short-dated food.
Is the food still good?
Near-expiry is not the same as bad: it is edible food close to its sell-by date. Every lot passes through the store’s own traceability before it enters a box.
Can I choose what is in the box?
The box depends on that day’s surplus, so you cannot pick dish by dish. You can set dietary preferences and block allergens: a box containing them will never reach you.
What if there is an ingredient I dislike?
Recipes come with simple substitutions for secondary ingredients, and your profile rules out anything you have blocked.
Where do I collect the box?
At the partner supermarket, in the slot you choose. Home delivery is also available with a separate delivery fee.
Do I have to subscribe?
No. You can buy one-off boxes. A subscription earns an extra discount, and you can pause, skip a week or cancel from your profile at no cost.
