Corporate food delivery company EAT Club has purchased the personal meal business of US-based foodservice company Farm Hill.

Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed. However, EAT Club has so far raised $50m in financing from investors and Farm Hill recently raised $4m in capital.

According to EAT Club, the transaction will contribute to its overall growth by expanding the presence of its virtual cafeteria service to a new customer base and increase the portfolio of meal options to employees.

EAT Club founder and COO Rodrigo Santibanez said: “Farm Hill’s extensive customer base, combined with its impressive offering made it the perfect choice as an acquisition target for EAT Club.

“I understand firsthand just how valuable high-quality individual meals are to employee productivity, retention, collaboration, and overall company culture.”

“Together, we will expand the EAT Club service to a larger customer footprint and solidify our leading position in the market.”

In addition, EAT Club has appointed Doug Leeds as its new CEO, who joins the company from August Capital.
