Business Journal: “Dream Dinners started in early 2002 as a monthly gathering of co-founder Stephanie Firchau’s friends, who wanted to socialize for a few hours while they put together a month’s worth of meals to take home, freeze and cook later. It turns out her friends weren’t the only ones interested in the idea. With a boost from publicity in the national media, the Snohomish company has become a franchising phenomenon just two years later. ”

    I don’t recommend that anyone buy a meal prep franchise. Notice that everything you are seeing on the internet about these franchises are old postings. Let me tell you that this industry is in deep trouble. I bought a Supper Thyme USA franchise a year ago and in that time, 25% of the stores have closed. People have lost their life savings and some have lost their homes. Supper Thyme fired their corporate chef in Sept and as of this month, December, they let all salaried employees go. Now only the two owners, a husband and wife team, are trying to run the show alone. They are not good at returning calls, emails, etc. They have a sink or swim attitude and let me tell you that most of us are sinking. Supper Thyme USA is not the only one in trouble. I know that other meal prep franchises have been closing within the past year. This would include Dream Dinners, Super Suppers, My Girlfriend’s Kitchen, Main Dish and many more. Do not, repeat, Do not invest in one of these franchises.
