Our take
Daily Harvest has been offering customers home-delivery of frozen meals and products since its founding back in 2015. It is, however, an interesting and health-conscious re-imagining of the frozen meal concept, one which leans heavily on the ability to provide organic fruit and vegetables largely sourced in the US.
In this sense, the company sits neatly at the intersection of a growing focus on health-consciousness, and an increased consumer demand for personalized, home delivery grocery services. Whilst there are plenty of frozen meal delivery services operating across the US - Mosaic Foods, Splendid Spoon, The Good Kitchen, to name a few - Daily Harvest has carved out a distinctive niche through its focus on clean, nutritious ingredients sourced directly from farms.
In addition to backing up their promises of clean produce, this relatively local sourcing allows Daily Harvest to offer a more agile response to customer feedback. It has helped them gain a competitive edge as they have dodged many of the supply chain issues in recent years that are hampering international freighting. Having opened their first brick-and-mortar store in 2022, along with expanding their regenerative agriculture projects, this newly-minted Unicorn company is being rewarded for its distinctive and laudable operations in a highly competitive field.
