After growing up in the kitchen peeling carrots and potatoes with his father, Chris De Luca followed in his footsteps and became a chef. Today he focuses his delivery service on providing healthy meals for people too busy to cook. “A lot of my friends have kids and spouses and full-time jobs,” De Luca says. “They didn’t have time to spend with their families. So I started working for a few friends, preparing meals and charging them, and more people started to catch on. It just evolved into this whole business.”

He has expanded his base to include consumers who just want to eat healthy. “All of my meals come delivered in Styrofoam containers with ice packs, so the meals stay cool for hours.
