About Us:

Welcome to WECO! We cook fresh, chef-crafted dinners and hand-deliver them daily.

At WECO, we think dinnertime is worth saving.

Since our launch in Boston in 2020, WECO has delivered delicious, stress-free meals to families all over the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic and we are rapidly scaling nationwide. WECO meals are totally different from the typical ready-to-eat options that are more like a disappointing TV dinner!

If you love food and community, and think dinnertime is worth saving, there’s a place for you here!
