Tony Colley

Tony Colley is a passionate advocate for sustainability, social justice, and circular innovation. He is the founder of Be One to Give, an on-demand B2B logistics platform that helps grocery stores, hotels, universities, and caterers eliminate avoidable food waste through efficient surplus food recovery.

Driven by his own lived experience with food insecurity, Tony saw an opportunity to redesign a broken system. By leveraging data-driven technology and real-time logistics, his platform collects surplus food and redirects it to food-insecure communities within two hours of receipt, while simultaneously tracking and reporting his clients social and environmental impact.

Tony’s mission is to resolve avoidable food waste across the supply chain by helping businesses embed zero-waste practices into their operations, while meeting the urgent needs of nearly 9 million Canadians facing food insecurity. His net-zero, circular model tackles both environmental and social issues simultaneously, delivering measurable and lasting outcomes.

About B12Give Inc.

B12Give is a Canadian social enterprise and logistics platform dedicated to tackling two urgent challenges: food waste and food insecurity. Each year, millions of tonnes of edible food are discarded, generating harmful greenhouse gas emissions, while millions of Canadians struggle to access healthy and nutritious meals. B12Give bridges this gap by helping food business operators such as hotels, universities, caterers, and event venues seamlessly divert their surplus food in real time to local charities and community organizations.

Our circular, on-demand model combines data-driven technology with logistics partnerships, enabling food recovery to happen quickly, efficiently, and at scale. Unlike traditional food redistribution models that rely on prescheduled pickups, our platform ensures that food moves the moment it becomes surplus, maximizing freshness and minimizing waste.

We also embed accountability into every transaction, providing donors with sustainability reports that track pounds of food diverted, meals provided, gallons of water saved, and methane emissions avoided. This not only reduces operational and disposal costs for food retailers. but also transforms food recovery into a measurable business asset.

At the same time, community agencies gain reliable access to fresh, nutritious food, helping them better serve families in need. By hiring local community agencies to support logistics and distribution, B12Give also reinvests directly into the communities we serve, creating additional social impact. With every pickup, we reduce hunger, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and strengthen local resilience, turning excess into impact and helping build a future where no good food goes to waste while people go hungry.
