Food&i

What Food&i does

Food&i is a Dutch B2B corporate catering provider headquartered in Schiedam, Netherlands, offering on-site catering, barista coffee services, and digital food solutions to enterprise clients and educational institutions across the Benelux region. The company's product portfolio is organized into three integrated service lines: "Catering op locatie" (on-site catering with customized menus and dedicated staff), "Koffie en meer" (professional barista and beverage services), and "Slimme digitale oplossingen" (digital solutions, specifically the Foodwall ordering platform and the Smartfridge smart vending/fridge solution). It serves organizations ranging from small businesses to large multinationals, with Nestlé's Brussels site cited as a flagship customer.

The company's underlying technology stack centers on its digital platforms rather than traditional catering infrastructure. Foodwall functions as a configurable digital ordering and management platform for corporate environments, while Smartfridge provides unattended food access via a connected vending/fridge solution. The Dutch-language site frames these as "data gedreven oplossingen" (data-driven solutions), though no specific AI/ML, predictive analytics, or proprietary modeling capabilities are disclosed.

Food&i operates as a division of Facilicom Groep, a privately held Dutch diversified facility management conglomerate whose other divisions span cleaning (Gom), security (Trigion), hospitality (Tapwacht), and property/installation (Breijer). Revenue is generated through quote-based, multi-year B2B service contracts with horizontal segmentation across corporate and educational clients; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is tailored to each organization's size and requirements. The company pursues enterprise field sales with direct outreach and online quote/contact forms, and its go-to-market benefits from cross-sell access to Facilicom's enterprise accounts across eight vertical markets. The 2025 Gault&Millau Health Award — won at the Nestlé Brussels site — is its most prominent third-party credential in the healthy and sustainable catering segment.
