Feast & Fettle Makes Its Mid-Atlantic Debut
HOSPITALITY
Feast & Fettle, a premium prepared meal delivery service, is expanding into the Mid-Atlantic region.
In an industry often characterized by rapid, venture-backed "growth at all costs," Feast & Fettle is proving that discipline pays off. After nearly a decade of refined operations and consistent profitability in the Northeast, the premium prepared meal delivery service has officially launched in the Mid-Atlantic region.
As of today, households across Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Northern Virginia, including major hubs like Alexandria, Arlington, and Montgomery County, can now access the brand's signature hand-delivered, chef-prepared meals.
A Vertically Integrated Powerhouse
The anchor of this expansion is a brand-new production hub in Howard County, Maryland. This facility represents Feast & Fettle’s first major geographic operational leap outside its original Rhode Island roots.
What sets Feast & Fettle apart in the crowded meal-kit space is its fully vertically integrated model. Unlike competitors who rely on third-party shipping or fragmented kitchens, Feast & Fettle owns the entire process: from sourcing and cooking to packaging and last-mile delivery. This end-to-end control ensures a "hospitality-first" experience that maintains high standards even as the company scales.
“We waited until the model was proven, repeatable, and profitable,” said Carlos Ventura, CEO of Feast & Fettle. “Expanding our production footprint allows us to serve more households without compromising how we operate or what our Members expect from us.”
The Math Behind the Meals
Ventura’s disciplined approach has yielded impressive financial results. Feast & Fettle currently boasts:
40%+ Year-over-Year Growth: Sustaining high speed without sacrificing stability.
High Single-Digit EBITDA Margins: A rarity in a category known for high burn rates.
25%+ Kitchen-Level Margins: Showcasing the efficiency of their purpose-built commissary model.
Community First, Launch Second
While today marks the official "business" launch, Feast & Fettle has been a presence in the DMV for over a year. During the 2024 federal government shutdown, the company partnered with local food banks to provide meals to furloughed workers. They have continued this community-centric approach by working with organizations like the DC Food Project and Bread for the City to combat food insecurity.
“Showing up when people need support isn’t something we schedule around a launch,” Ventura added. “It’s part of how we operate.”
A New Era for the DMV Kitchen
The Howard County hub is expected to create hundreds of local jobs in the coming years, further embedding the brand into the Mid-Atlantic economy. For busy professionals and families in the DC metro area, the arrival of Feast & Fettle means more than just a convenient dinner, it’s the introduction of a premium, accountable service that treats meal delivery like true hospitality.
