Meals Now is a B2B platform that provides white-glove catering delivery by connecting independent-contractor drivers with catering kitchens and restaurants for large orders. It serves corporate offices, hospitals, schools, and event venues across 30+ U.S. cities, using a gig-style app where drivers pick up and deliver, with pay per order (roughly $18–$50+). Deliveries include on-site setup; drivers must look professional, have appropriate vehicles and catering gear, and can earn incentives via a driver tier system based on punctuality and setup quality. Unlike general food delivery apps that move fast food or groceries, Meals Now focuses on high-value corporate and event catering, aiming to provide reliable, scalable catering logistics across its network despite being unfunded as of May 2026.
