Case Study: The Food Foundation improves access to food bank services with Woosmap

The Food Foundation working to end child food poverty

The Food Foundation, a UK-based charity working to end child food poverty, faced the challenge of centralizing and mapping a complex, rapidly changing dataset of over 1600 food banks and relief services to provide citizens in need with easy access during the pandemic. To solve this, they turned to vendor Woosmap for its Store Locator and Store Search API solutions.

Woosmap implemented a custom workflow and an interactive 'food finder' map, centralizing disparate data sources and providing a back office for easy management. The solution was launched swiftly in time for a major campaign, resulting in a highly successful website that saw strong traffic directed by a prominent public figure. The Woosmap-powered tool provided vital, accessible support to a significant number of families during a critical winter period.
