The Lost Food Project to Serve an Additional 15,000 Beneficiaries with New Trucks

The Lost Food Project (TLFP) is projected to provide food aid to an additional 15,000 beneficiaries this year following the donation of two new refrigerated logistics trucks from the people of Japan. This significant boost to TLFP’s operational capacity is made possible through Japan’s Grant Assistance for Grassroots Human Security Projects (GGP).
Enhanced Fleet Capacity and Operational Reach

The addition of two Isuzu refrigerated trucks expands TLFP’s operational fleet to a total of six vehicles. This increase in fleet capacity, estimated at 11 percent, directly enables TLFP to enhance its food collection and distribution efforts. Each new truck is capable of carrying approximately eight pallets, translating to between 3,000kg and 4,000kg of food per trip, thereby ensuring the optimal condition of goods during transit.
Expansion of Services in Klang Valley and Ipoh

With the expanded transport capabilities, TLFP can increase its food collection trips within the Klang Valley by over 10 percent, extending its reach to a total of 115 beneficiary organisations. Furthermore, the donation facilitates the establishment of TLFP's second centre in Ipoh. One of the new trucks will be deployed to this Ipoh centre to specifically collect agricultural surplus directly from its source, addressing food waste at the farm level.
Broadened Support for Low-Cost Housing Communities

The sponsorship from Japan will also allow TLFP to extend its services to an estimated five new low-cost housing communities. This expansion will bring TLFP’s total reach to 38 People’s Housing Programme (PPR) locations. In parallel, TLFP plans to partner with 10 additional charities, enabling it to serve a wider network of 115 organisations across its operational areas.
