Why Tabakly

Too much good food is left unsold.

At the end of the day, food businesses can be left with suitable products that are difficult to sell in time, while many people are looking for more affordable ways to enjoy quality food.

Short selling windows

Fresh products may have only a limited time to find another customer.

Everyday affordability

Students and nearby consumers want useful options that fit their budgets.

A missing connection

Businesses and consumers need a simple, clear way to find one another at the right time.

The Tabakly Model

Saving food can be simple.

Tabakly is being designed to make suitable surplus food easier for businesses to offer and easier for nearby customers to discover.

Businesses Share Surplus Food

Participating food businesses could list suitable products with a clear price, collection time, and the information customers need.

Customers Discover Nearby Offers

Customers could browse affordable options from local bakeries, cafés, pastry shops, restaurants, and similar businesses.

Reserve, Pick Up & Reduce Waste

Customers could choose an offer and collect it from the business within the stated pickup window.

Tabakly is currently being developed and validated in Ankara. The final workflow may evolve before launch.
