Who We Are:
Our story began in 2011 when a group of office workers at a major logistics company in Chicago had a lunch problem. Nearby options were limited and the team was spending too much time and money traveling to their favorite restaurants. They had an idea: bring Chicago’s local restaurant culture inside the office to sell food.  It was an immediate hit.  When they discovered people from other companies sneaking into their office, they knew they were on to something and Fooda was born. 
Fooda pioneered the concept of rotating popup restaurants inside offices.  Today, we operate in 45 cities with over 100 million meals served and continue to grow rapidly.  Powered by technology and a network of 1500+ restaurants, we feed hungry people at work through a platform of unique food programs located within companies, office buildings, hospitals, schools, distribution centers, and more. At Fooda, we believe a workplace food program should be something employees love and look forward to every day.
