About us
Our belief is that quality of life starts with quality of food and our mission is to nourish the world’s older people through quality food and nutrition.
Latest news
My world changed forever when I watched a family member’s illness make it impossible for him to eat. The emotional impact set off a journey to uncover how other people with such challenges cope.
Our research revealed that too many people were also struggling to enjoy food and therefore get the nutrition they need. In fact, almost a quarter of older people are malnourished, meaning they are more frail, less independent and too often unhappy.
Our mission is to reclaim the true value of food by creating delicious food that will help people thrive when they are at their most vulnerable.

Our Food
Our recipes, created by an experienced Chef, have beautiful flavours, delicious aromas and vibrant colours. We source high quality ingredients from all over New Zealand – for example our pork is from Canterbury and pumpkin from Gisborne.
We then blend the fresh food with natural, plant-based nutrition, to provide extra bioavailable nutrition. The result is a variety of delicious foods that are full of flavour, packed with nutrition and easy to swallow.
Our consumers have not only experienced improved health but also improved quality of life – they deserve the very best & it starts with food!
