Sorainen has provided pro bono legal assistance to Aswell on setting up the terms and conditions for the corporate application users.

Aswell is a mobile application aiming to reduce food waste in the Baltic region.

"Every year, 88 million tons of food waste are generated in the EU, worth an estimated EUR 143 billion," Sorainen informed. "At the same time, 36.2 million people in the world cannot afford a quality meal every other day. Food waste is both an ethical and an economic problem while having a negative impact on the environment as well."

"With the Aswell mobile app, anyone can help to fight food waste," the firm reported. "Aswell will serve as a platform where traders and green-minded customers can find each other and collectively reduce food waste. The mobile app is expected to be made available to the public this summer."

The Sorainen team included Senior Associates Linda Reneslace, Liva Aleksejeva, and Dace Everte, and Assistant Lawyer Lucija Strauta.
