'Prepair' is a grocery store delivery service that aims to be a more sustainable way to get groceries without having to drive to the store yourself to get them. 'Prepair' offers ingredients that are local and homegrown to be delivered in pre-measured allotments in order to make it possible to quickly prepare a meal without having to focus on extended prep work.
'Prepair' is focused on sustainability and utilizes insulated bags to deliver food ingredients to shoppers rather than using single-use materials. Each bag is then returned to the company and washed to be reused for another delivery.
The 'Prepair' grocery store delivery service is a student project developed by Melia Tandiono of the ArtCenter College of Design in New York City.
