ANDES

ANDES (National Association for the Development of Solidarity Grocery Stores) is one of the main French food aid networks created in 2000, working to ensure that food is a right for all and a gateway to sustainable integration for people in precarious situations.

The association “Solidarité Alimentaire France”, which carries the ANDES brand, is an association under the French law of 1901 and has been a member of the SOS Group since 2019

The donation from SOCAPS Funds helped to purchase the association’s furniture, which was bought from resourceries. SOCAPS Fund is thus helping a local project with a strong environmental impact (systematizing the fight against food waste by allowing the recovery of unsold fruit and vegetables from wholesalers, and also from local farmers and industrialists), and a strong social impact via integration through economic activity (sustainable professional integration of people far from employment).
