Designed for convenience and made for sustainability, the dishwasher safe kits significantly reduce waste from single-use plastic and allow for an easier and more organized cooking experience.

“Single-use plastic is a well-known and pervasive problem in the food industry. As interest in meal kits continues to surge, we want to be leaders in innovating to minimize packaging waste,” said Husein Rahemtulla, Co-Founder and COO at Fresh Prep. “We quickly realized that if we wanted to create a sustainable solution at a large scale, developing a reusable packaging solution would be the best approach.”
