Meals are 500-700 calories per serving and take 35 minutes to prepare Blue Apron now operates two distribution centers with over 1,800 employees, and thousands of customers. However, we need to be vigilant about communicating the benefits of markets even more in these crowded times.īlue Apron charges approximately $10 per meal, and makes over 3 million meals every month. The truth is that many eaters will never become regular market shoppers but many can be introduced to the joys of seasonal whole foods through these services and so market organizers should at least be aware of them and do their best to work along if it does not impair the direct sales of the market’s vendors. Hello Fresh is another well-known company using the same model, but Blue Apron is seen as the industry leader and just raised 135 million dollars so is now “valued” at 2 billion dollars. Their delivery van is seen at most markets first thing picking up orders from individual market vendors.Īnother version of the delivery service of “fresh” but not necessarily local is Blue Apron which delivers the precise ingredients for meals to your door, and adds seasonal recipes and detailed instructions.
In my area, Good Eggs has the corner on the regional ingredient delivery system right now. Many market organizers and vendors have seen the market box concept in action in their region, where a non-profit or an entrepreneur picks up goods from participating producers and sells them as a package or allows for individual selections, packed and delivered.
