What Fooditude does

Fooditude Ltd is a London-based contract caterer founded in 2005, specializing in delivered-in, or "kitchenless," catering for corporate offices. The company prepares all meals from scratch in a central production kitchen using professional chefs and seasonal ingredients, then delivers the food directly to client offices where Fooditude staff serve and clean up. This model removes the need for on-site kitchen infrastructure at the client, differentiating Fooditude from traditional on-site contract caterers.

The product portfolio centers on Workplace Dining (recurring office catering), Corporate Event Catering, and Office Pantry and Coffee services, with modular add-ons including Food Programmes (culture-aligned bespoke catering), One-off Team Lunches, Business Lunch Catering, and Sustainable Event Catering. Dedicated account managers are assigned to every client to ensure service consistency. Fooditude holds Sustainable Restaurant Association and The Planet Mark accreditations and has published a Net Zero roadmap.

The business operates as a subsidiary of Sodexo Group, selling directly to enterprise clients through a field sales motion targeting facilities managers and HR decision-makers in London offices. Revenue is generated through recurring corporate catering contracts (subscription-style) and one-off event catering engagements, with quote-based pricing. Named enterprise customers include Yahoo, Airbnb, American Express, Intercom, Monday.com, Netflix, Pinterest, Roku, and Samsara.
