HelloFresh: global number of active subscribers 2014-2017
How does a meal kit service work?
It is a subscription-based service which delivers customers fresh ingredients direct to their homes. The ingredients are pre-portioned, and therefore just need to be combined and cooked before serving. The service is marketed as a time-saving solution for busy workers and parents who still want to make fresh homecooked meals during the week.

Along with their number of subscribers, HelloFresh’s revenue has gone through the roof in recent years . In 2018, they generated a global net revenue of approximately 1.3 billion Euros.
