Hungry swallows Hungerhub, creating US$110M powerhouse for North American workplace dining

The combined entity now stands among North America’s larger workplace food platforms, in a field long dominated by fragmented local players with narrower offerings.

NORTH AMERICA – Hungry has acquired Canada-based office meal delivery provider Hungerhub in a deal that pushes the combined company’s annual revenue past US$110 million and creates a true cross-border force in workplace dining.

The acquisition, announced this week, brings together two companies obsessed with one mission: making office meals something employees actually look forward to.

Two Companies, One Appetite for Better Workplace Food

Here’s what just happened: Hungry, which already served more than 1,000 corporate clients across 24 US cities, has absorbed Toronto-based Hungerhub, a player with deep roots in over ten Canadian markets.

The combined entity now stands among North America’s larger workplace food platforms, in a field long dominated by fragmented local players with narrower offerings.

Jeff Grass, Hungry’s CEO, framed the move as destiny: “Our vision has always extended beyond a single market. By bringing Hungerhub into the platform, we are expanding our ability to deliver consistent workplace dining experiences across borders while continuing to scale with our enterprise customers.”

Why This Matters for Anyone Who Eats at Work

Think about your office cafeteria for a moment. Is it inspiring? Probably not. That’s the opportunity both companies saw.

Hungerhub connects employers with a curated network of local restaurants through a technology platform, bringing variety and quality to daily meal delivery.

Hungry layers on catering, group ordering, live event dining, pantry programs, and micro-market solutions.

Together, they offer enterprises a one-stop shop for every workplace food scenario.

Sari Abdo, Hungerhub’s CEO, seems genuinely energized by the union: “Joining Hungry accelerates our mission to modernise the office meal experience while maintaining the quality our customers trust.”

Translation: same great local flavor, now with more muscle behind it.

The US$110 Million Question

With combined revenue topping US$110 million, the new entity enters territory where scale starts to matter in meaningful ways.

Bigger purchasing power, broader tech investment, and the ability to serve companies with employees scattered across both countries.

Gary Batara, Hungry’s chief marketing officer, put it poetically: “Work has outgrown traditional boundaries. This merger allows us to scale meaningful food experiences for organisations and people operating across cities and, now, countries.

A Field Ready for Disruption

The workplace food sector has long been fragmented—regional players, narrow service lines, inconsistent quality.

Hungry and Hungerhub’s merger signals that the moment for consolidation has arrived. With Sodexo already partnering with Hungry last year to improve foodservice options, the momentum is unmistakable.

For the millions of North Americans heading back to offices, that could mean one thing: better lunches ahead.
