Council of the City of Sydney, Australia Good and Fugly Full time

Company Description

Good & Fugly is a start-up on a mission to make the world a better place. We think it's crazy that up to 25% of produce never leaves the farm because it's not 'pretty' enough. So we started Good & Fugly to bring perfectly imperfect fruit & veg boxes straight to the doors of Australians. Each Good & Fugly box helps fight waste by eating well. Join our team and help us make saving the planet affordable, convenient and delicious

If you're a passionate self-starter, who doesn't mind getting their hands dirty (sometimes literally) Good & Fugly is a perfect place to grow your career while helping the planet.
