DeliverLean Opens USDA Certified Center in Hollywood, Florida

12/13/2017
DeliverLean, a healthy gourmet meal delivery service, converted its 16,000 square foot wholesale production facility into a USDA certified center in Hollywood, Florida. The facility is part of its ongoing quest towards national expansion.

The company will add upwards of 75 new employees at its USDA Certified campus, including an on-site USDA inspector, bringing the company’s total number of staff to over 225 associates.

According to company officials, USDA certification of this facility brings DeliverLean one step closer to large volume national food manufacturing. USDA certification is a clear indicator of the company’s continued commitment to providing the highest quality food and safety standards and is a natural next step as the company looks to grow its footprint on a national scale.

“The USDA certification of our Hollywood facility helps DeliverLean evolve from a regional meal delivery service into a turnkey grab and go food solution with large scale food manufacturing capabilities giving us unlimited growth potential. This gets us closer to delivering our products nationwide as we continue our mission to make healthy food available for consumers everywhere,” said Scott Harris, CEO of DeliverLean.

Securing a niche in the marketplace for healthy, ready-to-eat meals, DeliverLean continues to bring restaurant quality, calorically balanced menu items to consumers, officials said. In addition to subscription based meal delivery options, DeliverLean menu items are also available in airports, hotels, grocery markets and convenience stores via clients like Aramark, Hudson News, Whole Foods Markets, Boucher Brothers, Diplomat Resort, The Ritz Carlton and others.

DeliverLean was established in 2011 by health-conscious foodie and savvy entrepreneur Scott Harris as a solution to save people time and energy, while simultaneously providing a nutritious and convenient way for people to live a healthy lifestyle. DeliverLean brings together experts in diet and nutrition, culinary arts, operations and customer service to offer affordable, healthy meals and grab and go items.
