About
Gousto is a UK-based meal kit subscription company founded in 2012 by Timo Boldt and James Carter, headquartered in London. The company operates as a direct-to-consumer subscription service: customers select meals from a weekly rotating menu of 100+ recipes, and Gousto delivers pre-portioned, fresh ingredients with step-by-step recipe cards to their door — removing the need for meal planning, grocery shopping, and food waste management. Gousto's model emphasizes flexibility: customers can skip weeks, change box sizes (2–5 recipes for 2–5 people), and cancel without penalty, addressing key friction points that plagued earlier subscription meal kit models.
