The whole service, explained
Installation, daily deliveries, restocking, support. Here is how it all works.
We install the fridge
We handle the entire installation. You do not need a canteen, a dedicated food area, or any specialist infrastructure. Our smart fridges are temperature-controlled and designed to sit neatly in a kitchen area, breakout space, or corridor, compact enough to fit almost anywhere without disrupting your workplace.
- Less than 1m² of floor space and a standard plug socket is all you need
- Installation managed entirely by our team
- Fridge owned and maintained by Chef & Porter throughout
We deliver fresh meals daily
Every morning our kitchen team prepares a fresh selection of meals and delivers them directly to your fridge. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, and drinks are all included, with the menu rotating regularly so there is always something new to choose from. Our kitchen holds a 5-star food hygiene rating and every item carries full allergen, ingredient, and nutritional information.
- Fresh meals prepared daily in our 5-star rated kitchen
- Delivered before your team arrives
- Rotating menu so it never gets repetitive
- Full allergen and nutritional info on every item
- Caters for all dietary requirements including vegan, gluten-free, and more
We manage everything behind the scenes
Once the fridge is in and the deliveries are running, you do not need to think about it. We monitor usage, adjust restocking, handle maintenance, and send you regular reports. Everything runs in the background, exactly as it should.
Restocking guided by data and feedback
We track what sells and adjust quantities and menu composition based on real usage data and team feedback. Popular items are restocked more frequently.
Usage and performance reporting
You receive regular reporting on usage, popular items, and service performance. No admin required from your side, just a clear picture of how the service is running.
Surplus redistribution
Any unsold meals at the end of the day are redistributed to local charities and food banks rather than going to waste. We take care of everything.
Ongoing maintenance
The fridge, the stock, the labels, the temperature monitoring. All of it is our responsibility. If something needs attention, we deal with it.
Ongoing support
If something is not right, we want to know about it. Your account contact is always on hand and your team can reach us directly through the Porter app.
How your team uses the fridge
No app to download, no account to create, no queuing. Your team simply walks up to the fridge and helps themselves.
Tap a contactless card or phone to unlock the fridge. Visa, Mastercard, and mobile wallets are all supported.
Choose from the day's selection of fresh meals, snacks, and drinks. Full pricing, allergen, and nutritional information is displayed on every item.
Close the door and get on with the day. Payment is handled automatically.
For a full view of what is in the fridge before they even walk up to it, your team can open the Porter app by scanning the QR code on the fridge.
Meet Porter, our menu and support app
Porter is our free app for everyone using the fridge. Simply scan the QR code on your fridge to open it instantly. No download required, though you can save it to your home screen for quick access.
Today's menu
See what's in the fridge today before you walk up to it. Full menu and pricing updated daily. Filter by dietary preference or allergen to find what works for you.
Allergen and nutritional information
Every item carries full ingredient, allergen, and nutritional information, so you always know exactly what you are eating.
Support and feedback
Something not right? Contact our support team directly through Porter. You can also leave feedback on individual dishes, which helps us improve the menu over time.
Porter is accessed exclusively via the QR code on your fridge. You don't need the app to pay or use the fridge.
Access and payment
Your team pays directly at the fridge by contactless card or phone. No account to create, no pre-ordering. Just tap and go.
Staff pay directly
Team members tap their card or phone at the fridge. Visa, Mastercard, and mobile wallets are all supported. Simple, fast, and no admin required from you.
Subsidised meals
Employers can cover part or all of the cost as a staff benefit. Subsidies are applied via a simple pin system at the fridge — team members enter their pin, tap their card, and the discount is applied automatically.
Vouchers and credits
Issue meal credits as a one-off gesture or an ongoing perk. A birthday treat, a reward for great work, or simply a way of saying thank you.
