About Sanvitafood GmbH
Rohstoffbörse is the B2B raw material exchange platform of Sanvitafood GmbH, based in Weinfelden, Switzerland. It connects surplus food ingredients and other food-related overstock from producers and food companies with buyers such as canteens, restaurants, SMEs, outlets, and private customers.
The company positions itself as a practical solution for redistributing quality ingredients at discounted prices, helping sellers reduce waste and recover value while giving buyers access to affordable raw materials. Its model combines marketplace-style sales with handling services such as ordering, pickup, delivery, repacking, and labeling.
Core Values

- Practical efficiency: Its services are designed to make surplus redistribution simple, fast, and workable for both suppliers and buyers.
- Sustainability: By extending the life of food ingredients and reducing disposal, the platform supports lower waste and a smaller environmental footprint.
