Video Case Study: Foodbank Victoria, Data For Smarter Food Distribution
TL;DR
Foodbank Victoria partnered with Notitia and Qlik to improve food distribution using real-time data dashboards and a cloud-based analytics platform. The transformation reduced food cost per kilo by 15%, enabled smarter planning, and earned them the 2025 Qlik Global Transformation Award for their impact-driven use of data.
When you’re a charity trying to meet rising demand with limited resources, every decision matters.
That’s why Foodbank Victoria partnered with Notitia and Qlik — to build a clearer, more useful view of their operations, and to ensure every food donation and delivery goes as far as possible.
Foodbank Victoria provides more than a million meals to Victorians each month.
“Foodbank Victoria is a not for profit business that sources and distributions healthy food via 500 charity partners, over 1100 schools and serves 69,000 meals every day to Victorians in need.”
— Justin Scotti, CFO Foodbank Victoria.
To keep up with rising demand, they needed to make faster, more informed decisions — backed by data they could trust.
They’ve now built a new cloud-based platform and a set of dashboards that brings together real-time data on food programs, supply chain and distribution.
