Recruitment sales director Robin Poppham and his wife Claire sit down to dinner on Tuesday night. He has poached salmon in a hot saffron sauce; she’s gone for the vegetarian option, spinach and ricotta lasagna.
Like many other busy Londoners, they are often left with little time in the evening to cook healthy meals. With the current financial climate they cannot afford to eat out every night but want a healthy alternative to dining in; something which they found with MyFoodForYou.com. By subscribing to this healthy gourmet food service they can sit down to a home-cooked, healthy meal every night. By ordering online from MyFoodForYou.com, choosing from a delectable menu of high quality food, their food is delivered directly to them on an evening of their choice. An easy and cost effective alternative to eating out in the city.
Based in Twickenham, MyFoodForYou was established in 2008 and now serves hundreds of meals each week to busy professionals across the capital that want to eat affordable, healthy food. This exceptional food delivery service is the brainchild of former fashion retail analyst Lina Forsberg. ”I would get home after a long day in the office and a session at the gym and I’d be too tired to cook for myself. I’d always pick up a supermarket ready meal. I thought there must be a way to eat healthy, nutritious and tasty food affordably. Those supermarket ready meals are so uninspiring and unhealthy. But I couldn’t find anywhere that did that, so I decided to test the market myself,” said Lina, a self-taught cook. For two months the 27-year-old entrepreneur cooked different dishes from her flat at weekends and delivered them to friends. “My friends loved it and encouraged me to expand. So I wrote a business plan, found an investor and My Food For You was born.” She now has more than 100 meals on her menu all cooked fresh and frozen and delivered in eco-friendly, compostable packaging. A week’s subscription of five meals costs £25 – have been a hit with customers across the capital. The company is expanding and has started a vegetarian subscription and a lunch delivery service for businesses.
Lina is proud of her business’ ethical values; “We want to make a difference in people’s lives. Food is so important, but eating healthily takes a great deal of effort and time…and it’s expensive. I wanted to create a way for people to lead a healthy, less stressful lifestyle in an affordable and convenient way,” commented Lina, something which My Food For You is achieving in leaps and bounds.
