WHO ARE WE?

Changing the world with one sustainable, responsible and satisfyingly Fresh meal at a time. 

Life on earth is changing. Through mass production of ‘long shelf life’ snacks, synthetic ingredients and false foods have become commonplace. We are spearheading a movement towards a more wholesome meal designation and delivery. By using mother earth’s natural processes, we harvest organic, non-GMO ingredients combined with free range, certified-humane animal proteins as the foundation of all our meals. Nature knows what it is doing, it has been doing it for a long, long time. We are just the in-between people to ensure nature’s dish arrives on your doorstep undisturbed. 

WHAT DO WE DO?

Giving you access to life-enhancing, delicious nutrition as easy as the push of a button. 

As our culture moves towards automation and higher demand, we offer a contrast to the over-saturation of low-tier food delivery services. We do all that work for you, so there’s no reason to keep eating the junk. 

HOW DO WE DO IT?

Crafting original recipes using our own facilities, our own chefs and our own staff. 

We are a 55,000 sq-ft. purpose-built operation in Anaheim, CA. Harvesting fantastic regional produce to cook deliciously real food. We have our own farms based in California where our farmers source nutrient-dense ingredients, to send directly to our kitchen. Ingredients include a wide range of fruits and vegetables, grass-fed beef, free range eggs & poultry and wild-caught fish. 

Nothing is ever fried or frozen. We typically bake, steam or lightly grill, so ingredients retain their nutritional value and taste. The ready-to-eat meal journey is a process made simple only by the high-quality output of our team. 

WHY DO WE DO IT?

Healthy habits performed daily are what make the difference. 

Eating food is a need, but also a habit. It can be hard to break the habits of a lifetime by giving up easy food to shop, cook and clean up instead. A lot of people have the intention (every January, actually) to eat better and live better. Yet, more than 90% of new diets fail. Why? Because life is busy. It’s tough to maintain new habits. 

But the reality is; people don’t always fail their diets; the diet also fails them. This is why Fresh N Lean is so revolutionary. We create recipes, meal plan, cook and deliver them to ensure your diet stays on track. It’s our mission to see a healthier, happier and more fulfilled human family.
