Elevating Meal Delivery: How GA Foods Combines Nutrition and Service Excellence to Enhance Well-Being
At GA Foods, we are dedicated to providing more than just high-quality home delivered meals—we aim to offer a comprehensive, convenient, service that prioritizes our customers’ overall health and well-being.
- Our staff of Registered Dietitians design our wide variety of meals, which includes medically tailored meals to support chronic conditions.
- Meals are flash-frozen to maintain freshness and guarantee nutritional integrity.
- We deliver the total meal system, which means that all our frozen entrées and sides come with fruit, juice, and whole grain bread for optimal nourishment.
- In addition to our frozen meal line, our product offerings include fresh produce boxes, grocery boxes, and shelf-stable meal boxes.
Our Delivery Care Team (DCT) sets us apart from other medically tailored meal companies. Our DCT hand delivers meals to members across the country, pass stringent background checks, undergo regular screenings, and are trained in elder care. In addition, our DCT use tablets to collect actionable data and screen for social risk during each delivery, working in conjunction with an integrated reporting system to guarantee excellence in every aspect of our service.
Our white-glove delivery service extends into the home in numerous ways:
1. Meal Handling and Sustainability
We take pride in our Green Initiative. Not only does our DCT ensure that meals are placed in the freezer upon request, but they also handle the recycling of packaging materials. This commitment to sustainability helps reduce waste and makes our customers’ lives easier.
2. Custom Meal Delivery Vehicles
GA Foods delivery vehicles are custom built, featuring our logo wrapped around the truck. Our vehicles are temperature-controlled to maintain meal freshness. We also have the ability to separate different temperature needs for clients that receive our shelf-stable options. All of our vehicles have GPS tracking and automatic event recorders to ensure the safe transport of products.
3. Member Health & Satisfaction Surveys
Customer health and satisfaction are our top priorities. We conduct regular surveys to gather customer feedback on our service. This information is crucial for us to refine our services and better meet our customers’ needs.
4. Basic Living & Safety Observations
Our DCT is trained to record basic living and safety observations during their visits. These observations are shared with case managers to help monitor the member’s living environment and ensure the utmost safety and comfort.
5. Proof-of-Delivery & Redelivery Tracking
To ensure that our customers receive their meals as planned, we capture proof-of-delivery. In cases of missed appointments, our system tracks re-deliveries meticulously to accommodate our customer’s schedule and preferences. Customers have the option to receive text updates on their delivery status from our DCT.
