About Rumbella:

Hi, I’m Chris Wilson, Co-Founder and CEO of Rumbella—a platform born from my deep commitment to building a better, more sustainable world. Rumbella is a circular economy solution that aims to tackle one of the world’s biggest challenges: food waste. Our platform connects food and beverage (F&B) vendors, consumers, charities, and circular economy partners to ensure surplus food and organic byproducts are redistributed, repurposed, and turned into valuable resources.

At its core, Rumbella is more than just a business—it’s a movement that transforms the way cities and communities approach sustainability.

Our Mission:

Reduce Food Waste: Every edible item deserves a purpose. We help communities keep valuable food out of landfills.

Cut CO₂ and Methane Emissions: Diverting organics from landfills significantly reduces greenhouse gases, supporting cities in their climate goals.

Enable Circular Economies: Rumbella turns "waste" into opportunities by connecting businesses with partners who use organic byproducts for compost, animal feed, or bioenergy.

Support Vulnerable Communities: Helping surplus food find its way to those in need is something I’m incredibly passionate about—it strengthens communities and fosters resilience.

Why I Built Rumbella:

Rumbella was born out of a belief that real sustainability isn’t just about reducing waste—it’s about creating economic, social, and environmental value from what we save. Having worked closely with governments and community partners, I’ve seen firsthand how much food waste represents a missed opportunity to do good. I wanted to create a solution that empowers cities to take control, foster collaboration, and see tangible results.

What We Offer:

Digital Marketplace: Our platform enables businesses to list surplus food for sale, donation, or redistribution.

End-to-End Managed Service: My team and I provide comprehensive support—from platform maintenance and community training to real-time data insights that track waste reduction and emissions savings.

Tailored Integration: We work closely with cities to customize Rumbella’s features to meet local sustainability objectives, whether through pilot initiatives or full-scale rollouts.

Impact So Far:

I’m proud to share that since our launch:

Hundreds of tons of food waste have been diverted from landfills.

Over 300,000 meals have been shared with vulnerable households, supporting food security.

Businesses using Rumbella have recovered significant revenue by monetizing surplus goods instead of paying for costly disposal.

Collaboration Opportunities:

Rumbella thrives on collaboration. Whether partnering with city officials, universities, or local environmental groups, I’m committed to making sustainability accessible, measurable, and meaningful. Our partnerships unlock economic returns through subscription and transaction fees, reduced landfill costs, and the generation of carbon credits.

If you’re interested in piloting Rumbella in your city or want to co-create a solution that empowers your community, let’s talk. Together, we can lead the way in building a zero-waste future.

My Invitation:

Let’s turn surplus into solutions, waste into resources, and missed opportunities into measurable change.
