Steven Novick is the Founder of Farmstand and he believes in plant-powered food. In 2006, he was diagnosed with cancer. He believes changing to a plant-based diet helped him beat cancer which is why he started Farmstand in London in 2016.
Farmstand is a plant-powered cloud catering marketplace. They make & deliver affordably-priced bulk meals to offices & homes. Breakfast from £2 and lunch and dinner from £5. The New York Times described Farmstand as “wellness for all.” Their marketplace offering is also flexitarian: 80% vegan, 5% sustainable fish and 15% ethical meat. And they have over 25,000 meal combinations which change with the seasons. An international menu without the carbon footprint.
They are disrupting the $200BN office & home catering market which serves 35BN meals/year that will be doubling by 2032.
Most meals being delivered to offices & homes are not healthy, frozen, expensive and not good for the planet.
Farmstand believes there is a better way to build a scalable food business. Their mission is to feed the world plants. Their goal is for every person to eat One plant-based Meal a Day. They call it OMD. Their plan is to make and deliver bulk meals to 1 million offices and 1 million homes per week in 10 cities in 10 years.
They were named a Top-2 Most Sustainable Food Business two years in row by the Food Made Good Awards and were a finalist for Venture Funded Business of the Year by Startups.co.uk.
Farmstand lives by a zero-waste philosophy which includes only using reusable or compostable packaging and is on track to be carbon-negative by next year.
Their Board of Directors has always been 50% gender-balanced.
They also pay their entire team the London Living Wage and everyone is also an owner of the business.
Come join their mission to feed the world plants.
