A charity has opened Denmark's first ever food surplus supermarket.
The store in capital city Copenhagen called Wefood will sell produce at prices 30 to 50 per cent cheaper than normal supermarkets.
Per Bjerre from the NGO behind the market, Folkekirkens Nødhjælp, said: "WeFood is the first supermarket of its kind in Denmark and perhaps the world as it is not just aimed at low-income shoppers but anyone who is concerned about the amount of food waste produced in this country.
"Many people see this as a positive and politically correct way to approach the issue."
Wefood have deal with Føtex (one of the biggest supermarket chains in Denmark) for bread and other products. Full story...
