Box Divvy
Back in 2015, Co-Founders Jayne, Anton and Richard were dabbling with food co-ops – but they were too custom, too expensive, not easily scalable. In 2017, we were invited to join the Western Sydney Diabetes Alliance – part of NSW Health. They liked our ability to set up food Hubs in areas with poor access to affordable fresh food and they set us a challenge - Can we make it scalable and cheaper?

Supermarkets in Australia are suffering from a trust deficiency, and it's making shoppers reconsider their choices. We believe that Box Divvy is an idea whose time has come - focussed around box sharing, with lower prices, fresher produce, shorter lead times and 80% less packaging.
We launched with 3 Hubs in early 2019. Fast forward to today, and we’re operating 286 Hubs from Canberra to Coffs Harbour, with over 13,000 members.
We’re opening 1-2 new Hubs a week with two out of three Hubs near full capacity, with an average membership size of 40-45. We started with fruit, veg, eggs, bread, nuts and beans – and an average basket size of $35.
Today, we sell about 900 products across fruit, vegetables, bakery, dry groceries, meat, seafood and dairy with an average basket size around $75.
The best part? Our model works. Our business is good for the people and the planet, and it’s profitable too! Generating $20M in FY24 and we’re growing at a rate of 50% Year on Year.
And this is just the beginning…
