WASTING GREAT FOOD IS STUPID
About us
We’re a different kind of food store; an e-commerce bringing together heroes to make saved food an ingredient in people’s everyday life.
We were founded on the insight that huge amounts of food and consumer products are tossed away - not because they’re not consumable - but for a whole range of other reasons, such as seasonal changes, faulty packaging or short best-before dates. All wrong reasons, if you ask us.
So we came into this game to change all this, by challenging the status quo and making sure already-produced stuff is saved, not wasted.

The Motatos way
We’re not only a different kind of food store, with a burning passion for saving already-produced stuff. Above all else, we're a company filled with unlike-minded people who constantly turn our food-saving dreams into reality and are the creators of a remarkable company culture (humble hint: ours).
The Motatos way is all about being human, caring for each other, disrupting to challenge the status quo, and taking action to make things happen because, at the end of the day, food doesn't save itself.

We really appreciate candidates taking the time and making the effort to write a cover letter! But cover letters aren’t required in applications as we only need your CV for the first screening. So if you haven't written a cover letter, don't worry, it won't lessen your chances of making it to the next stage!

We believe that flexibility and freedom drive performance. We also believe that we create great things when working together, and that meeting in person fuels our team spirit, well-being and creativity.
Therefore, we have a hybrid model that encourages both office work and remote work, depending on role, assignments, team and business needs. On average, this means we spend about 50% of our time together at the office.
Working from home is not possible for roles in our warehouse.
