Order placement and delivery process:
All goods need to be delivered to a central location next to the Dublin
airport. HelloFresh places orders through the special supplier portal with
the frequency and lead time agreed with the supplier. One day a week
is dedicated to the inbound of long-shelf life products and two days are
dedicated to the inbound of fresh.
Size and packaging:
Given HelloFresh works with pre-portioned ingredients, the size of their
products is often smaller than that of retail as it allows the customer to use
the ingredient for only one meal and avoid any waste.
The packaging has to be very robust, alot of different ingredients are
assembled in a box together, none of which can break in transit. HelloFresh
works with:
• vacuum pack for most protein products;
• pouches for dairy where possible;
• single-packed bakery ingredients (i.e. one baguette in a pack with a
label);
• mostly loose produce (each fruit/veg has to be the exact grammage);
• HelloFresh also mostly uses its own brand on the packaging.

Shelf life of the products should be no less than 7 days on delivery to the
HelloFresh warehouse.

Distrubition Providers
