Canada-based SPATULA Foods, a prepared meal delivery platform that launched in March 2022, offers 15 “Michelin Chef” recipes and meals that are available to order on a weekly basis powered by SPATULA's customizable subscription platform. The meals are delivered in a flash-frozen, vacuum-sealed pouch and each dish contains two portions starting at a price point of USD 11.49 per plate. The company claimed its meals are ready to consume in 10 minutes—3x faster than a meal kit and ~4x faster than third-party delivery platforms. At its beta launch earlier this year, the company stated that it expects an average basket size of ~USD 100.
The company was co-founded by Ian Weng (former head of strategy at Uber Eats Canada) and Wallace Wong (Michelin trained chef, Top Chef Canada finalist, and notable TikToker). As of March 2022, the platform served the Greater Toronto Area, with plans for a broader rollout by partnering with local chefs across Canada.
In conjunction with the launch, the company announced that it had raised USD 1.5 million (~CAD 1.87 million) in pre-seed funding led by Global Founders Capital with participation from Panache Ventures, Loyal VC, and angel investors including former co-CEO of HelloFresh US and senior executives at Goodfood.
