STOCKED picks rapid delivery venture Zapp as first ever retail partner
Convenience meal solution STOCKED has launched into its first ever retail collaboration with British on-demand delivery firm Zapp.
STOCKED creates meals which are frozen into blocks, slotting straight into the freezer.
Founded by school friends and hometown neighbours, Sam Moss and ex-street food Chef Charlie Gilpin in April last year, the venture has since gone on to win three Great Taste Awards and achieve 99% five star reviews on Trustpilot.
The duo have launched three of their most popular dishes with Zapp, which can be delivered straight to customers' doors within minutes, 24/7.
Gilpin says: “We’ve already sent around 700 packs of STOCKED to Zapp’s central distribution centre and stores.”
“Myself and Sam manage everything, all the way down to the batch-cooking of the blocks themselves so we had to triple our production to get ready for this launch.”
He adds: “Launching with Zapp has allowed us to provide the ultimate meal time solution for our customers.”
“Not only will it be available in minutes, but the option for customers to build on their STOCKED Blocks order with other key ingredients means they have everything they could possibly need at their doorstep.”
Alex Hough, VP of Procurement & Partnerships at Zapp, which has raised $300 million in funding from investors including Atomico and Lightspeed, comments: “We are proud to be continuing our support of small businesses by being the first retail partner for STOCKED, the innovative frozen meal-prep brand.”
“We know that sometimes life can get in the way, so having quick and easy to use products such as STOCKED, available 24/7, are perfect for those ‘need it now’ moments.”
Customers can get £10 off their first £20 order by downloading the Zapp app on iOS or Android and using the code STOCKED10. For orders over £30, the standard delivery fee of £1.99 is waived.
