Our Philosophy

What we believe.

A delicious meal. A glass of wine. Conversation that flows, laughter that travels. The moments where we look around and think: yes. Life is good.


Savour it all.

Building community
with every dish.

It’s not enough for us to deliver beautiful food. We believe in community. Through showcasing passionate growers and producers, reducing waste, and recycling our products we’re here to be part of something bigger than ourselves.

Together at
the table.

Woop started in one kitchen, with two people, a baby, and not enough time.
In 2008, I arrived in New Zealand with my wife Jennifer - a jazz singer - and our small baby. As passionate foodies, we were amazed by the ingredients here: the lamb, the seafood, the produce. We quickly fell for the country and decided to stay.


I grew up in Paris, where dinner is the moment of togetherness that the whole day is arranged around. But with two careers and a small child, finding the time to enjoy cooking and sharing a beautiful meal was a daily challenge.
So we split the job. I researched recipes, and scoured the markets for the best ingredients. I chopped, measured and got everything ready before the pan came out. Jennifer cooked, singing as she went.


That simple arrangement became the idea behind Woop. With the preparation taken care of, cooking became a pleasure, and we could spend more time at the dinner table.


In 2015, I built a kitchen, found a whole group of passionate foodies to do that preparation for more families. So more people could finish a full day with a beautiful meal, together.


Bon appétit,
Thomas

Sustainability

Our commitment to the environment.

    Back to Base.

    When we drop off your new box, we can pick up the old one and recycle all the packaging. Because if we can’t take it back we shouldn’t hand it out.

    Reduced food waste.

    We make every box to order which means we only order what we need. Less food waste means a happier planet.

    Supporting local.

    As a Kiwi business we know how important it is to support local. Not only is it better for our communities, it means our food doesn’t have to travel as far to get to us.

Careers
What do I get with my plan?

A box of dinners each week: recipes, fresh ingredients prepped and portioned, and our house-made sauces.

How is Woop different from other meal kits?

Most meal kits hand you ingredients and a recipe. We do all the preparation. Vegetables come hand-prepared, meat marinated, sauces house-made in our kitchen, so a 25-minute recipe really does take 25 minutes.

Where do you deliver?

Across most of New Zealand. Enter your address at checkout and we will confirm your delivery day.

Can I skip, pause or change my box?

Any time, from your account. Change your dinners, skip a week or pause for a month. There is no lock-in. Cancel anytime.

Am I locked into a contract?

No. There's no contract and no minimum. You can skip a week or cancel at any time, as long as you do it before Monday midnight.
