An Agenda
For the People
Still Good is a leading social enterprise dedicated to solving the dual challenge of food waste and food insecurity in South Africa.
Every year, millions of tons of perfectly edible food are discarded while many South Africans struggle to afford basic nutrition. We are here to change that by making sure food stays where it belongs: on your table.

At still good, We think about sustainability differently
Affordability is a Right
We believe that access to nutritious food should never be determined by income. Our commitment to providing groceries at a significant discount is the cornerstone of our vision. This isn't just a sale; it's a structural solution designed to restore balance and ensure that financial hardship doesn't mean sacrificing the well-being of your family. By making essential food affordable, we empower families to build a stable, sustainable foundation for their lives.
Nourishment with Dignity
Every person deserves to feed their family without shame or struggle. Our service is designed to provide a dignified and empowering experience, giving families the freedom to choose the food they need. We see food not just as sustenance, but as a source of comfort, connection, and joy. Our mission is to ensure that every family can experience the dignity that comes from providing for their loved ones with confidence.
Strengthen Communities
When a family can afford to eat, the entire community becomes stronger. By easing the burden of grocery bills, we help families redirect their resources toward other critical areas like education, healthcare, and savings. This creates a ripple effect of stability and opportunity that uplifts entire neighborhoods. A well-fed community is a resilient community, and we are dedicated to fostering that strength one family at a time.
Turning Surplus into Social Good
We see the problem of food surplus not as waste, but as a powerful opportunity. Our model is intentionally designed to intercept quality, nutritious food and redirect it to the homes where it is needed most. This is sustainability in action—a practical solution that simultaneously combats food waste and tackles food insecurity. Every meal we provide is a testament to the idea that a smarter food system can create a more equitable world for everyone.
