Danish company Simple Feast, which offered vegan and vegetarian meal kits and groceries, has declared bankruptcy, resulting in layoffs for all 150 employees. The closure, announced in September 2022, ends deliveries in Denmark, Sweden, and California. Co-founder and CEO Jakob Jønck cited the combined impact of pandemic-related shutdowns and the war in Ukraine as major challenges that led to the shutdown. Founded in 2014, the company had delivered around 5.5 million plant-based meals and raised nearly half a billion kroner in capital.
