Our Meal Kits: Sustainable by Nature

We source your ingredients directly from the producer and deliver to your home without any detours. Your recipe box comes with pre-measured ingredients which helps to avoid food waste. This shorter supply chain means we avoid packaging and repackaging along the way. As a result, your HelloFresh meals create 25%* fewer carbon emissions than the same meals made from supermarket ingredients. Learn more about our Life Cycle Assessment Study.

Keeping More on Your Plate

Keeping More on Your Plate

Food belongs on the plate, not in the garbage. Food waste makes an impact on the climate. We buy ingredients based on your order, pre-portioned to the gram. So you are cutting food waste by up to 36% with every meal.

Balance Your Carbon Footprint

Balance Your Carbon Footprint

We order ingredients directly from our producers, so your groceries are delivered straight to your home without stopping at other retailers. This saves on transport time and extra storage, and therefore CO₂ emissions.
Innovative Packaging

Innovative Packaging

Your ingredients always arrive in the highest quality and freshness. We are continuously working to reduce our transport packaging waste globally and make all of our packaging more sustainable.

Freshly Sourced

The taste is just as important as the origin and freshness of your food. We value regional and seasonal produce, as well as sustainable agriculture, fishing and animal farming.
