Farmer’s Fridge is a revolutionary approach to healthy eating on the go, launched in 2013 by founder Luke Saunders. Motivated by his struggles to find nutritious food while traveling, Luke developed a network of refrigerated vending machines he calls 'Fridges.' These machines are strategically placed in locations like hospitals, office buildings, universities, and airports, making it easier than ever to access fresh, wholesome meals. Today, Farmer’s Fridge boasts over 1,000 Fridges nationwide, serving thousands of customers daily and distributing products in partnership with major retailers such as Target and Amazon Go.
The company prides itself on sourcing high-quality, often locally grown ingredients to create meals that are both healthy and delicious. Each meal, prepared in their Chicago kitchen, is made from real whole foods and packed with a full serving of fruits and vegetables. This commitment to quality extends to their sourcing practices, where they prioritize ethical treatment of workers and environmental sustainability.
Farmer’s Fridge's mission is clear: to make fruits and vegetables accessible and appealing to everyone. Their unique Fridges are designed to not only store and supply food but also to ensure that what you are eating is fresh. Equipped with technology that guarantees temperature control, each Fridge dispenses meals that are prepared daily and stocked regularly. This approach not only provides convenience but also transforms the traditional vending machine experience into one that is healthier and more user-friendly.
As Farmer’s Fridge continues to grow, they remain dedicated to improving the food landscape by making healthy eating easy and accessible, with a strong focus on customer satisfaction and community impact.
