Komal Ahmad

Komal Ahmad is the founder and CEO of Copia, a website and mobile app that connects businesses with excess food inventory to communities in need. Businesses request a pickup, and Copia sends a driver to deliver the food to one of the hundreds of shelters on the company’s platform. With the ongoing support and contribution from food donors, recipients, on-demand drivers and a dedicated team, Copia has fed more than 660,000 people and recovered more than 800,000 pounds of food, enough to feed the entire country of Luxembourg. Copia recently partnered with the NFL during Super Bowl 50 to recover more than 28,000 pounds of food, and feed more than 23,000 people in need (three times the homeless population of San Francisco).
