Sustainability at HelloFresh
Sustainability is a part of everything we do. HelloFresh provides a more sustainable way to buy, prepare, and enjoy food.
Our Recipe Box: Sustainable by Nature
We source your ingredients directly from the producer and deliver to your home without any detours. Your recipe box comes with pre-measured ingredients which helps to avoid food waste. This shorter supply chain means we avoid packaging and repackaging along the way. As a result, your HelloFresh meals create 25%* fewer carbon emissions than the same meals made from supermarket ingredients. Learn more about our Life Cycle Assessment Study.
*On a global average; national levels differ.
Our Sustainability Efforts
HelloFresh takes sustainability seriously. In 2022, we set science-based emissions reduction targets. These targets are in line with the Paris Climate Agreement's goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. To learn more, take a look at our 2023 Non-Financial Report and see our latest sustainability achievements and how we measure their impact.
Keeping More on Your Plate
When food waste goes to landfill, it impacts the climate by producing greenhouse gases. In total, UK households waste 4.5 million tonnes of food every year1. We help you reduce food waste by purchasing ingredients based on your order, pre-portioned to the gram.

No Detours
We order all ingredients directly from our suppliers, so your groceries are delivered straight to your home without stopping at warehouses and retailers. This saves CO₂ emissions by cutting back on transport time and extra storage.
Innovative Packaging
Your ingredients are always of the highest quality and are delivered to your door fresh and safe. We are continuously innovating to find more sustainable options or to remove packaging altogether.
Freshly Sourced
Where food comes from is as important as how it tastes. We attach a great deal of importance to regional and seasonal produce, as well as sustainable agriculture, fishing, and animal farming.
Climate Conscious recipes
We have now launched Climate Conscious recipes in our boxes. These recipes are responsible for the lowest amount of CO2e emissions on the weekly menu and produce at least 50% less carbon emissions than the average HelloFresh meal. Climate Conscious recipes are just as convenient, tasty and balanced as our other meals, but give you one more way to make everyday sustainable food choices with HelloFresh.
HelloFresh Gardens
Here at HelloFresh, we’re committed to wasting less food. We’ve partnered with Social Farms & Gardens, a UK-wide charity that supplies community growing spaces for local residents, to help communities and families to learn more about living sustainably and growing their own. By growing their own fruit, vegetables and flowers, people of all ages can come together to find out more about where food comes from, learn new gardening skills and enjoy the benefits of being in nature. This year, we’ll be shining a spotlight on families and children in particular, helping to inspire a future generation to grow their own and adopt sustainable practices. We’ve also teamed up with low-waste chef and food champion Max La Manna who will help to inspire people to adopt more sustainable habits, reduce their carbon footprint and inform a future generation of budding chefs and cooks.
Donate your box to Charity
We've partnered with London based charity The Felix Project who help fight hunger by rescuing fresh, nutritious surplus food and delivering it to charities and schools for people in need. We work with this charity to make sure that any surplus food we have at our packing facility is donated to those who need it most.
You can also support by donating your HelloFresh box to The Felix Project to support those in need.
