ZeroCater

Specialties

ZeroCater is the simplest way to feed your team.

1. Tell us when you would like food, how many people will be eating, and whether anyone has food allergies or dietary restrictions. Dietary preferences are fine too, you tomato-​haters and onion-​phobes — we won’t judge, we just want to feed you right!

2. ZeroCater orders meals for you from a rotation of more than 250 great local restaurants, caterers and private chefs.

3. Rate the meals that arrive so ZeroCater can learn your tastes and adjust what kind of food we send you.

For example, you can tell us you want lunch Monday through Wednesday for 100 people, including 20 vegetarians, 6 vegans and 3 who requested gluten-​free meals. Our dedicated team of foodies will craft custom orders at dozens of great restaurants and rotate them through your schedule.

Meet the Business Owner

Arram S.

Business Owner

Arram originally hails from Southern California but now calls the San Francisco Bay Area his home. He became obsessed with tech startups when he was 20 years old and as an experiment, he decided to totally commit to the goal of building a successful technology company. He sold everything he owned and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area. After nearly running out of money, he did a 2-​week stint as an ice cream scooper at Ben & Jerry’s before landing a job at Justin​.tv. As the fifth employee of a rapidly growing company, he was responsible for everything from testing software releases to ordering lunch. Eighteen months later, having seen firsthand how startups really work, Arram heard some friends complaining about their company lunches. Realizing that ordering lunch was his own biggest pain, he offered to handle their lunches for them.
