In 2020 we offered more customers than ever a safe, convenient way to source fresh ingredients. As we grew, so did our commitment to do so sustainably. Read our 2020 Sustainability Report to learn exactly how we acted on this commitment – from becoming the first global carbon-neutral meal kit company to donating €13 million worth of unused food to those in need.

When food waste goes to landfill, it impacts the climate by producing greenhouse gases. We buy ingredients based on your order, pre-portioned to the gram. So you are cutting food waste by up to 21% with every HelloFresh meal.

We order all of our fresh ingredients directly from our suppliers, so your groceries are delivered straight to your home without stopping at other warehouses or retailers. This saves CO₂ emissions by cutting back on transport time and extra storage.

Your ingredients are always of the highest quality and are delivered to your door fresh and safe. We are continuously innovating to find more sustainable options or to remove packaging altogether.

Where food comes from is as important as how it tastes. We attach a great deal of importance to regional and seasonal produce, as well as sustainable agriculture, fishing, and animal farming.

We’ve partnered with Plastic Bank®️ to set up three plastic collection branches in Indonesia. These collection centers will stop over 750,000 kg of plastic from entering the ocean over three years – an equivalent of 37.5 million plastic bottles. Each center works with members of the local community, offering them a premium for every piece of plastic waste they collect. This enables the collectors to provide basic necessities like food, cooking fuel, health care and education for their families. The recovered plastic waste is then recycled and integrated back into the plastic value chain as Social Plastic®. In this way, HelloFresh will support over 560 families in need while making a tangible contribution to the fight against plastic pollution.
