Treatsure (Word play on Treasure) is an imaginative startup tackling the age-old problem of food wastage with the power of technology and new solutions. Sometime in 2016, their Co-founder, Preston witnessed his family throwing out consumable expiring food from his fridge and wondered, “Might it be possible to have an app to redistribute food to others?”
After brainstorming with his friend Kenneth and further market research, the duo found potential in the B2C space and started working on the idea. Treatsure was then born to provide an alternative solution that will help address food wastage, while providing value to merchants and everyday consumers.
On top of an ever changing list of offerings based on the latest supplies available, Treatsure also retails sustainable and eco friendly products like reusable lunch boxes (from $4.50), beeswax wrap ($32) and many more items we can incorporate in our day to day lives.
