Revolution Foods

Revolution Foods is an American meal provider founded in 2006 by Kristin Groos Richmond and Kirsten Saenz Tobey, who started the company while pursuing MBAs at UC Berkeley. It supplies healthy, culturally relevant and affordable meals to communities across the United States and is the largest K-12 school meal vendor in California. Its stated mission is to eliminate food insecurity.

The company's main line of business is its K-12 school meal programme, which delivers nutritious meals for students that exceed the federal nutrition and ingredient standards set by USDA programmes including NSLP, SBP, CACFP and SFSP; more than 35 million such meals are served each year. Since 2019 it has also run senior meal programmes, offering home-delivered and grab-and-go options for older adults. Meals are distributed by a fleet of more than 80 trucks to upwards of 800 schools and senior centres annually, and the company reports a 100% audit pass rate.

Revolution Foods operates in the K-12 school nutrition, senior nutrition and food service sectors, working within public-sector USDA meal programmes. Its presence is concentrated in California and Nevada, alongside broader operations across the United States.

The company is a Certified B Corporation and converted to a Delaware Public Benefit Corporation in 2024. It describes itself as a purpose-driven organisation working on large-scale food systems change, balancing business sustainability with its impact on workers, communities and the planet, with stated commitments to purpose, transparency and accountability, and to diversity, equity and culturally relevant meals.
