For the past four years, we\u2019ve been actively collaborating with the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.toogoodtogo.com\/es\">Too Good To Go app<\/a><\/strong>, a platform that helps us efficiently manage the surplus food from our breakfast buffet.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Each day, we prepare bread, pastries, and cakes that, although still in perfect condition, we cannot reuse the following day. Thanks to this collaboration, <strong>we offer these foods at reduced prices through the app<\/strong>, preventing them from being thrown away and allowing someone else to enjoy them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to reducing waste, the income generated through this platform is used to <strong>support local environmental conservation projects<\/strong> with organizations such as the local <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grupnaturasterna.org\/es\/\">Naturalist Association Sterna<\/a><\/strong> or the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/noa18nusos.wixsite.com\/noa18nusos\">Noa18nusos<\/a><\/strong> association, which works to preserve cetaceans in the Mediterranean and protect marine ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This collaboration not only contributes to a more <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/en\/what_is_the_circular_economy\/\">circular economy<\/a><\/strong> but also supports the protection of the natural environment, allowing us to manage our resources in a more sustainable and responsible way.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-28982 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/3-1-300x210.png\" alt=\"Food waste\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>The Importance of Reducing Food Waste<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>Did you know that approximately <strong>one-third of the food produced globally is wasted?<\/strong> Don\u2019t you think that\u2019s a real shame?
