At FPP we consider the sharing of content and knowledge to be one of our principal responsibilities. We’ve created FPP Checkout to allow us to deliver against this.

The purpose of this platform is to simplify the consumption of content. With so many sources in both the offline and online world, it’s easy to fall behind on essential reading. Checkout finds relevant, up-to-date information and delivers it to you in one easily-accessible environment. What’s more, we also use Checkout to provide FPP category analysis and opinion whenever and wherever relevant.

Checkout is a platform designed with you in mind. And that doesn’t just apply to the content we deliver, but also the way in which we deliver it. We provide information that isn’t just relevant to the industry as a whole, but relevant to you as an individual.

If you click on ‘My Account’, you’ll be able to select the categorical content that is of interest to you. This will allow us to prioritise the content that we know you like.

We use a number of sources for the articles featured on Checkout. Whilst we won’t necessarily cover all of the publications you access, below is a list of the most common to try and give you as much as possible in one place:

Central England Co-operative and FareShare open new £50k food waste hub

Central England Co-operative has opened a new £50,000 hub with charity FareShare East Midlands as part of project to redistribute unsold food to people in need.

The project will see best before food items and non-food goods that cannot be sold at Food Stores across the country collected by colleagues from the Society’s Food Distribution Centre in Leicester. They will then be delivered to the new hub, sorted and then sent out to more than 250 local charities across the Midlands.

The scheme is being rolled out to more than 200 Food Stores in an effort to help good causes and reduce food waste.

“Food waste is a topic that customers and colleagues regularly talk to us about and it is great that our unsold food will now be benefiting a wide variety of people connected to hundreds of local charities through this great scheme,” said Central England Co-op chief executive Martyn Cheatle, who opened the hub at Oaks Industrial Estate, Narborough.
