An always-on smart fridge in your lobby, package room, or club lounge — stocked with real, ready-to-eat meals. Residents tap, grab, and go around the clock. Fully managed by our team, with zero work for your community staff.
Generic catering and delivery apps were not built for this. Here is what actually gets in the way, and what we fix.
Late-night delivery and quick-service runs pull residents out of the building exactly when you want them feeling at home in the amenity spaces you paid to build.
Lobbies, package rooms, and club lounges go cold outside of leasing-tour hours. A 24/7 fridge gives residents a real reason to circulate through them every day.
Premium rents need premium amenities. A real meal amenity reads as care for the resident, far more differentiated than another package room or another peloton.
Onsite leasing and maintenance staff aren't running a kitchen. A fully managed fridge means zero stocking, no expired-item triage, and no resident complaints landing in the leasing office.
Our 24/7 smart fridge program, cooked locally and fully managed by our team.
Place the fridge in the lobby, package room, fitness center, or club lounge. Residents tap a card or phone, take a meal, and go, 24/7. We stock it, rotate it, and handle every restock so your community team never touches food.

The Inland Empire is one of the country's most active multifamily markets — Class A garden communities and mid-rise developments in lease-up across Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Corona, Eastvale, Chino, and Riverside, plus student housing near UCR, Cal State San Bernardino, and Chaffey College. We cook locally in Rancho Cucamonga and restock on whatever cadence resident demand pulls, usually one to three times per week.
Real words from our partners we prepare for every week.
“Thank you for your assistance with this service! I continue to receive positive feedback every day about your services.”
“We're on our second agreement with MHP. The team adapts to our headcount changes, works with us on menu adjustments, and shows up consistently every week. One of the easier vendor relationships we've had.”
“The fridge seems like a hit here! Everyone loves it and it's such a great option for staff to have a healthy meal on site.”
Common questions from Residences & Apartments leaders about bringing fresh, fully managed meals on-site.
Start with a single unit on a 30-day amenity pilot. If your residents don't use it, you stop, with no obligation for the rest of the month.
