For Companies

ZenMeals is a Zurich food startup that caters teams who want food matching the caliber of the rest of their offsite: whole-food, nutrient-dense meals built on the same organic ingredients and published research as our subscription, delivered fresh to your office, workshop, or retreat venue. If your team is used to a tray of pastries and a sad fruit bowl, this is the upgrade.

Why teams book ZenMeals

Most corporate catering optimizes for looking generous, not for actually functioning as fuel: heavy pasta at lunch, refined-carb pastries at breakfast, sandwiches by the dozen. That's fine for a party. It's not great before an afternoon of decision-making. ZenMeals catering runs on the same principles as our regular meals: legumes, cruciferous vegetables, healthy fats, minimal processing, meaningful protein and fibre. A team that eats a Super Veggie-style lunch generally doesn't hit the 2pm wall the way a team on carbonara does. We bring the same standard to your conference room that we bring to your fridge at home.

Formats we cater

• Longevity breakfasts. Start a leadership offsite or all-hands with a spread built around protein, fibre, and healthy fats instead of croissants and coffee alone. People notice the difference by 11am.
• Workshop and offsite catering. Full-day sessions where people need to stay sharp, not sluggish. We deliver meals timed to your agenda, not the caterer's convenience.
• Board and leadership retreats. Smaller groups, higher expectations. We can tailor portions and combinations to a retreat's specific schedule and dietary needs.
• Founder breakfasts. Recurring or one-off breakfasts for founder meetups, investor mornings, or small leadership circles who want substance without a full catering production.
• Nutrition challenges. A multi-week team challenge, everyone on Super Veggie lunches for a month with shared check-ins, is a genuinely different kind of team-building exercise: measurable, healthy, and something people actually look forward to.
• Standing team lunches. Weekly or biweekly deliveries for teams that want a healthy default option without organizing catering from scratch each time.

How it works for companies

The mechanics are the same as our individual subscription, just scaled up: organic ingredients, weekly fresh preparation in our kitchen in Kreis 6, and delivery within Zurich city, timed to your event. We handle portioning for group sizes from a handful of founders around a table to a full all-hands. We can also mix the Super Veggie and Nutty Pudding ratio to match your event: more protein-forward for a working session, more Nutty Pudding for a lighter afternoon gathering. Meals arrive ready to serve straight from insulated delivery boxes. No kitchen staff or extra equipment needed on your end, just fridge or table space and about two minutes if anyone wants theirs reheated.

Dietary needs

Both current meals are plant-based, made without added sugar, and free of the ingredients that trigger most conventional catering headaches: no mystery sauces, no last-minute "is there a vegetarian option" scramble. The Nutty Pudding does contain tree nuts (macadamia, walnuts, brazil nut) and almond milk, so let us know your headcount's allergy profile in advance and we'll flag or adjust accordingly. Full ingredient and allergen detail for both meals is on our nutrition information page.

Pricing and lead time

Pricing scales with headcount and meal mix rather than a flat per-person rate. A fifteen-person founder breakfast and a hundred-person all-hands get proposals sized to the actual event. For most bookings we ask for a few days' lead time to line up with our weekly fresh-preparation cycle. Larger events or recurring nutrition challenges are easier with two to three weeks' notice, so we can plan volume with our kitchen. Rush requests are worth asking about anyway. We'll tell you honestly if your timeline works.

Not a one-size-fits-all caterer

We don't publish a generic catering menu with add-ons for every cuisine under the sun, and we don't do client name-drops or case studies. We'd rather let the food speak and keep every client's event details private. What we do instead is have a short conversation about your event: headcount, timing, venue, and what success looks like for your team, then build a proposal around that. If longevity-minded catering sounds like the wrong fit for your specific event, we'll tell you that too.
