About us

Our story and vision


We intercept quality food surplus and source ingredients from independent local suppliers. What we do not use goes to food pantries and community groups.

The sustainable choice for corporate catering


Sustainability is a word that gets thrown around a lot, but at Via Arkadia, we don’t use it lightly. It runs through everything we do – from our sustainable sourcing of ingredients and waste-reducing approach to cooking, to our packaging, delivery, and carbon accounting.

We get essential supplies to people facing food insecurity every week


Every week, we’re out delivering food and supplies to independent food banks, and food pantry projects.

We’re working towards a future where food banks are no longer needed, and food waste doesn’t happen


We support organisations who are working to end the need for emergency food provision and get people out of poverty in real and lasting ways.

We advocate for legislation that directly incentivizes the production and consumption of plant-based whole foods, echoing the Finnish Food Authority’s recommendations to mitigate climate change while protecting population health.

We champion ethical business


When we buy ingredients, we buy them locally and from organisations we know treat their workers well and pay them fairly.
