NEW YORK, Feb. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Hungryroot, the personal assistant for healthy living, announced its 2023 financial results today. The company grew a staggering 40% year-over-year to $333M in net revenue and generated over $9M in profit, demonstrating the value its unique model delivers.
“Our customers trust us to recommend and deliver healthy groceries, simple recipes, and essential supplements to help them feel their best,” said Ben McKean, Founder and CEO of Hungryroot. “This saves them time and stress, helps them accomplish health objectives, discover new foods, and save money by ordering out less and reducing food waste.”
Highly personalized to support a range of household sizes, diets, budgets, and preferences, Hungryroot delivers a range of nourishing groceries — fresh produce, premium meats and seafood, pastas, grains, sauces, and more — with simple, 3-4 ingredient recipes that can be cooked in minutes. They also offer prepared meals, smoothies, shakes, juices, healthy snacks and sweets, and essential vitamins and supplements. Customers have complete control to choose exactly what they want, but they trust Hungryroot to largely choose for them. In fact, two-thirds of what they buy is picked by Hungryroot’s proprietary AI.
This unique value proposition of health, convenience, and discovery sets the company apart. Hungryroot is more convenient than grocery shopping, it’s cheaper than takeout, and it’s easier and quicker than a meal kit. In January, the company launched its Best Price Program, which offers the best prices on popular brands, such as Annie’s, Koia, Once Upon a Farm, Sir Kensington’s, Harvest Snaps, and Unreal, among others.
Hungryroot has the best customer retention in the industry (and it has improved 50% over the past two years). The average customer spends more than $1,000 in their first year with the service – 50% higher than other leading online services based on data from Earnest Analytics.
“At Hungryroot, our work is centered on our customers’ wellness,” said McKean. “We help people feel better on a daily basis. That’s why we do what we do, and it’s ultimately what drives our success.”
