LES LASAGNES DU COEUR

What LES LASAGNES DU COEUR does

Les Lasagnes Du Coeur is a Belgian social purpose company (Les Lasagnes du coeur SCRL FS) founded on 2 August 2010 and headquartered in Verviers, Belgium. The company sells a single core product — fresh lasagna meals — under a direct-to-consumer model that channels more than 80% of profits to charitable associations and solidarity actions. Originally created to help children placed by judges go on vacation, the mission has over time expanded to support vulnerable populations including the elderly, homeless, disabled, and people with serious illnesses, routed through partner ASBLs and local solidarity initiatives.

The business operates with a small team of 6 employees and uses a deliberately low-tech stack: orders are taken via a toll-free national hotline (0800 854 54) and a website contact form, with separate billing and sales/delivery phone lines. There is no mobile app, no e-commerce checkout, no public API, and no proprietary technology disclosed. The product mix is a single SKU category, and the brand is supported by a small set of minor partners (Domaine Du Douar, Atout-Commerces, Atout-Blog).

Geographically, the company has historically focused on Wallonia and has publicly announced expansion into the Germanophone and Dutch-speaking regions of Belgium, with a stated intention to run charitable actions at the local level. There is no external funding, no parent company, no M&A activity, and no enterprise customer base; the entity is a private, mission-driven micro-enterprise whose commercial activity is structurally tied to its charitable redistribution model.

Direct peers

• Les Restos du Coeur: France's largest food-based charitable organization; directly comparable mission (food + helping people in difficulty) and near-identical brand naming. Differs in being an ASBL food-distribution model rather than a for-profit social enterprise selling a paid product.
• Too Good To Go: Social-impact food marketplace selling surplus meals from restaurants and stores. Directly comparable food + impact hybrid model, though operating via an app-based marketplace rather than a single proprietary product.

Emerging players

• La Tablée des Chefs: Canadian social enterprise training youth in cooking while feeding vulnerable populations. Comparable food + cause-driven mission; geographically distinct and education-focused rather than direct prepared-meal sales.
• FareShare: UK-based food redistribution charity that rescues surplus food for vulnerable communities. Comparable food + vulnerable-population mission; UK-focused and donation-based rather than a paid-product social enterprise.
• FoodCloud: Social enterprise connecting retailers with surplus food to charities. Comparable food-waste/social-impact focus, with technology-mediated redistribution rather than proprietary prepared-meal manufacturing.
• Olio: Food-sharing platform that redistributes surplus food to reduce waste. Comparable social-mission food business, but B2C sharing-network model rather than direct prepared-meal sales.

Others

• Philabundance: US-based food bank serving vulnerable populations. Comparable charitable mission to feed those in need; operates a donation/distribution model rather than a paid-product social enterprise.

Regional players

• Le Relais (France/Belgium): Belgian/French social enterprise integrating vulnerable populations through work. Operates in Belgium with a comparable SCRL-style social-enterprise structure, but focuses on textiles/recycling rather than food.

Broad incumbents

• Sodexo (Stop Hunger initiative): Global food services giant running the Stop Hunger foundation supporting vulnerable populations. Overlapping food + charitable-impact positioning but at vastly larger scale and across a broad services portfolio.
• Compass Group (Stop Hunger Foundation): Global contract food services company with a foundation targeting food poverty. Comparable food + social-impact theme, but operates at enterprise scale across institutional catering rather than as a single-product social enterprise.
