Abstract
Venner Nutrition has signed Kerry’s Fresh as its online distribution partner to offer its plant-based recipe boxes to families across the UK with 51% of the company profits going towards supporting families in need.

Each of Venner’s plant-based recipe boxes are designed to feed a family of four for five days. Packed full of fresh fruit and vegetables plus some store-cupboard essentials, the box includes breakfast, snacks and recipes for evening meals. The recipe boxes aim to help customers make the most out of the ingredients, be inventive with mealtimes and minimise food waste. 

The ingredients of the boxes, which are priced at £35 (just £1.75 per person a day) are changed monthly, with Venner’s team of nutritional experts focussing on seasonal foods.

Laura Holland, head of UK at Venner Nutrition, said: “In order to launch Venner Nutrition boxes in the UK , it was key we found a partner we could trust to provide the very best ingredients and Kerry’s Fresh is just that.

“We can’t wait to get our boxes on the doorstep of families across the country, which in turn will enable us to help even more families in need at such a crucial time for food poverty.”

Having worked with charities and local authorities in the UK and Finland since 2018 to support and educate families on the benefits of nutrition, this is the first time Venner will sell boxes direct to UK customers. As a social enterprise 51% of profit from box sales will go towards supporting more families in need so it can amplify its mission to end UK food poverty. 

Dean Kerry, managing director of Kerry’s Fresh, added: “It’s a pleasure to be working with Venner and supporting them in making a difference to UK food poverty.

“Whether that’s providing families with healthy and delicious ingredients straight to their door, or fulfilling the orders of businesses who want to make a difference to the health of their teams or their local community by bulk buying boxes, we’re looking forward to being part of the Venner journey.”
