A New Chapter
We’re excited to share that Cookin has been acquired by CookUnity to accelerate our shared mission of empowering food creators and shaping the future of food.
Together, we are creating a culinary ecosystem where chefs at any stage of their journey can build successful businesses outside of traditional paths.
The Cookin Community and the Future of Food
At Cookin, our mission has always been to empower food creators to thrive. Whether you’re running a side hustle or looking to build a nationwide food business, we believe in giving chefs the tools they need to succeed. This acquisition strengthens that mission by giving you access to the full breadth of resources and reach that CookUnity offers while maintaining the flexibility and support you expect from Cookin.
Together, CookUnity and Cookin are transforming how food creators grow and scale their businesses, and you are now part of the fastest-growing food tech company in the world!
What Does This Mean for Chefs?
This acquisition brings exciting new opportunities for chefs across both Cookin and CookUnity platforms.
Here’s how it will benefit you:
For Cookin Chefs
Once you establish a successful hyper-local business, you’ll have the opportunity to expand your reach beyond your community with CookUnity, allowing your business to grow on a larger scale through its extensive meal subscription model.
As a chef on the CookUnity marketplace, you gain access to commercial kitchens, supplies, and ingredients, as well as a full range of support services, including delivery and marketing across North America.
You can achieve all of this without losing the flexibility of Cookin’s platform. Whether you prefer to continue with Cookin’s à la carte or ‘drop’ concepts, explore CookUnity’s subscription models for broader distribution, or both, the choice is yours.
For CookUnity Chefs
This partnership offers you even more flexibility. You can now engage locally with customers through Cookin’s tools, providing personalized, direct interactions with your audience.
Whether you want to explore à la carte delivery of hot meals to your local community or diversify your business with new sales models, the integration of these platforms gives you the power to shape your culinary business in new and exciting ways!
Together, we’re giving chefs more control, reach, and ways to connect with customers.
What Does This Mean for Customers?
For our loyal customers, this acquisition means an even better experience. We’re committed to maintaining the quality and care you expect from every meal.
Here’s what’s coming:
More Variety
The combined forces of CookUnity and Cookin mean you’ll have access to a broader range of chef-prepared meals, from hyperlocal specialties to nationwide favorites.
Same Quality, More Choices
Whether you’re looking for a weekly subscription to chef-made meals or an a la carte delivery from your favorite local chef, our platform will offer more ways to enjoy food crafted with passion.
Seamless Experience
We’ll continue to provide a smooth, easy-to-use platform for ordering, with new features coming soon to enhance your experience.
Our Unified Mission: Empowering Food Creators
At the heart of this acquisition is a shared mission: to empower food creators. Together, we believe we can reshape the food industry by giving chefs the tools, flexibility, and resources they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world.
Both Cookin and CookUnity are chef-led platforms, designed to simplify running a food business. From reducing logistical burdens to providing marketing and customer engagement tools, we’ve created an ecosystem that supports chefs at every stage of their journey.
