A subscription meal service known as a "meal kit" sends customers pre-portioned or partially prepared food items and recipes so they may prepare meals at home. The growing preference for cuisine made by chefs and at home among millennials is one of the major factors propelling the market's growth.
In 2021, the average weekly number of home-cooked meals stayed the same at 6.7, matching the amount from the previous year. While the number of dinners prepared at home climbed from 3.5 to 3.6, the number of lunches prepared at home declined slightly from 3.2 to 3.1.

The delivery service is particularly well-liked and widely used by Generations Y and Z. The advantages of cooked meals, which are more affordable than takeaway and home delivery services, are causing consumers to favor the product more and more.
Meal kits increase convenience because customers do not need to make grocery plans, reducing the time needed to prepare food. Additionally, it encourages customers to experiment with unfamiliar items and cooking methods. Vendors ensure that the meal kit delivered to customers features simple-to-follow instructions, culinary advice, and the precise component amounts needed to produce the meal in a handy, pre-packaged box. Furthermore, vendors ensure that the goods offered to customers are fresh and sufficient to complete the meal. Vendors are offering subscription choices so that customers can sign up for a subscription and specify their dietary requirements as more and more consumers choose a speedier way of life.

Health-conscious consumers increasingly favor home-cooked meals over those from food service delivery services, including meal kits. Food prepared at home is nutritiously dense, fresh, and hygienic. As a result, more people choose to eat at home more frequently. Food prepared at home is less expensive than food purchased outside, particularly meals made with meal kits. Additionally, advantages including portion control, hygiene, food safety, improved allergy management, cost advantages, and maximal nutrition encourage people to choose home-cooked food. Such cooking shows are likelier to attract viewers who attempt to recreate the recipes at home. This is a contributing element to the growing desire for food made at home, which is limiting market expansion.
Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, virtually all restaurants, coffee shops, and hotels worldwide were shuttered, and there was a huge chance for the industry to expand. The number of people looking for healthy and convenient meal options increased quickly due to people being more worried about their health and beginning to place greater emphasis on healthy diets to keep a healthy diet and bolster their immune systems. Even market participants have noticed a sharp rise in revenue during the pandemic. For instance, compared to 2019, Hello Fresh's income climbed by more than 100% in 2020.
