How MHP serves Medical Device & Biotech
Three programs from one local Rancho Cucamonga kitchen. Pick one or combine them to cover every shift.
Smart Fridge
A meal waiting outside the clean zone
A tap-to-open Smart Fridge in the break room gives swing and graveyard crews fresh meals 24/7, with no driver entering the controlled environment.

Weekly Team Meal Delivery
Meals for the days you don't cook
Individual chef-prepared meals workers take home, covering the rotating-shift days when home meal prep falls apart.
See how it fits →The food problems unique to medtech and biotech teams
From medical-device assembly in the Inland Empire to biotech and life-sciences campuses in Greater Los Angeles and Orange County, generic catering and delivery apps were not built for cleanroom and controlled-area realities. Here is what actually gets in the way, and what we fix.
Gowning eats the break
Cleanroom workers have to gown out, eat, and gown back in, which can leave under 20 minutes of a 30-minute meal break for actually eating.
No food access on swing and graveyard
Where a cafeteria exists at all, it serves first shift only, leaving second and third shift with vending machines and fast food that closes at 10pm.
Contamination rules block the workarounds
FDA CGMP rules prohibit food at workstations in controlled areas, so keeping a snack at the line isn't an option; the only fix is a real meal in the break area.
Long commutes kill home meal prep
Production workers commuting 30-plus minutes each way often leave before they can eat, and rotating shifts disrupt any prep routine.
Flagship Catering Program

FAQ — Medical Device & Biotech
Common questions from Medical Device & Biotech leaders about bringing fresh, fully managed meals on-site.
Can you deliver without entering our cleanroom or controlled areas? +
Yes. We stage meals in the break area and stock the Smart Fridge outside the clean zone. No driver crosses your controlled environment, and food never reaches a workstation.
Can you cover swing and graveyard shifts? +
Yes. The Smart Fridge is available around the clock, and catered drops are timed to your shift-change windows so second and third shift aren't left with vending.
Do we have to sign a long-term contract? +
We don't start with a long-term contract. Most teams begin with a 30-day pilot that includes a week-2 cancel checkpoint — if it's not landing, you stop right there with no obligation for the rest of the month.
How is pricing structured? +
It depends on headcount, frequency, and which program fits your site. We quote to your worksite and can structure it as employer-funded, subsidized, or simple pay-per-meal. Send us an inquiry — we'll reach out to confirm fit and follow up with your rate within 24 hours. Better rates available for prepayment.
