My Take on SEAZON: Was It the Best Meal Delivery Service of 2024?

A few months ago, between work and household chores, I started to feel a bit overwhelmed. Cooking for the entire week took up a significant portion of my schedule, and it was time I would have preferred to spend on something else.

I wanted to get healthy meals delivered, and after looking at several comparisons, I decided to try Seazon for a few weeks. Today, I'm sharing my thoughts on this ready-made meal delivery service that brings meals straight to your door.

💖 I absolutely loved it

  • A wide selection of recipes,
  • The "world cuisine" dishes that were delicious,
  • The time-saving benefits of this service,
  • Understanding the origins of the ingredients,
  • Enjoying dishes prepared in France,
  • Being aware of the nutritional values of the meals consumed.

I didn't like it as much

  • Products delivered in plastic boxes, not very eco-friendly,
  • I experienced a delivery delay which required me to refund some dishes.

How Does Seazon Work?

Seazon offers you the chance to receive fresh meals prepared by chefs at your home every week. You can choose between 4 and 24 dishes per week, which will be delivered directly to your door in one go.

There’s no commitment: you decide whether you want to place an order each week or not.

Season Meal

What is the approach behind Seazon?

We're all about offering balanced and varied dishes, featuring seasonal fruits and vegetables. The company places great importance on environmental sustainability. In fact, 4 out of 5 Seazon dishes have an eco-score of over 80%. This means that these products have a minimal environmental footprint. Additionally, many ingredients are locally sourced!

How does Seazon delivery work?

Initially, I was sceptical about storing meals for an entire week and the delivery system. However, Seazon uses the Chronofresh service from Chronopost in France and DPDFresh in Belgium, which ensures the continuity of the cold chain.

Your meals are delivered on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, or Saturday, between 8 am and 1 pm. You can, of course, choose your delivery day when you subscribe, to ensure you receive your order smoothly.

Order easily from the Seazon app 📱

To make your life easier, Seazon invites you to order your meals directly from the app, available:

👉 The app is, of course, free! For me, it saves me a lot of valuable time and I can choose my meals from anywhere!

Who are Seazon meals for?

A Seazon meal weighs about 400g and meets the nutritional needs of a healthy adult. For children under 12, I would recommend planning one meal for two children.

Additionally, the meal options are designed to cater to a wide audience. Seazon offers a range of dishes:

  • Flexitarians,
  • Vegetarians,
  • 100% plant-based or vegan.

Furthermore, Seazon allows you to specify your dietary preferences and health requirements by indicating:

  • Your possible allergies,
  • The ingredients you dislike,
  • Whether you prefer spicy dishes or not,
  • If you need cold meals or meals to heat up.

👉 The company doesn't aim to offer you diet dishes, but it does allow you to order meals with under 500 kcal, or with a reduced carbohydrate intake (-30%) or protein.

  • to those who are trying to rebalance their diet,

What does a Seazon box look like? Find out in our video!

When I ordered my first meals from Seazon, I was really curious about the packaging of the dishes, their preservation in the package, and the quality of the wrapping...

As you might have similar questions yourself today, I’d like to share what you can expect when ordering from Seazon:

    While watching this video, we can see that:

    🔸 The meals are nicely packaged in the box 📦,

    🔸 Each dish comes with a brief menu detailing its ingredients and how it's prepared 📇,

    🔸 The meals come in plastic trays, which I do regret a bit, but the brand specifies on their website that they use recyclable plastic and are working on a new, more eco-friendly packaging solution.

    Can I gift a Seazon subscription? 🎁

    Do you have family or friends who could do with a hand preparing their meals? Great news: Seazon allows you to gift them a subscription through a gift card system.

    This will be perfectly suitable for:

    • Support a student who isn’t very confident in cooking,
    • Assist an elderly person to maintain their independence in daily life,
    • Provide help to young parents who are overwhelmed,
    • Encourage someone who is starting a new healthy eating plan...

    Simply visit the Seazon website, then click on "Gift" in the menu at the top. You'll then have the choice of 4 options:

    What do testers think? Check out customer reviews on Seazon!

    On its website, Seazon showcases a selection of the best customer reviews from Google and Facebook. For greater transparency, I went straight to these two platforms and have put together a brief summary of what can be found regarding Seazon.

    On Google

    As I write this review, Seazon has received 516 ratings on Google, with an average score of 4.1 / 5.

    💚 Google users loved:

    • The values of Seazon: local products, balanced meals...
    • The responsiveness of the customer service and their solutions to any issues encountered,
    • The practicality of the app,

    Positive review of Seazon

    ❌ Google customers were less satisfied:

    • Common issues with the Chronofresh delivery service: lost parcels, delays... It seems that customers in Belgium, who use the DPDfresh delivery service, aren't facing these problems. We hope to see Seazon address these issues with their courier soon: in the meantime, if you encounter any problems, the customer service team is very attentive and always offers compensation.

    Mixed review received on Google - customer service responded by offering compensation.

    On Facebook

    You can also leave a review on Facebook for the meals delivered by Seazon. The brand has nearly 170 reviews on the social network, with an average rating of 3.9 / 5.

    Avis Seazon Facebook

    Overall, the feedback is similar to what you see on Google. Customers generally seem pleased with the quality and variety of the dishes offered. The meals prepared by Seazon are tasty and genuinely save a good bit of time.

    However, it's during the delivery that issues tend to arise, mainly due to problems with the courier, Chronofresh. In situations like this, customers praise the effectiveness of the customer service.

    Seazon on Social Media

    You can follow Seazon on social media to stay updated on the latest brand news and gain access to exclusive subscriber discounts:

    • On Instagram to see examples of dishes,
    • On Facebook to engage with the community,
    • On Twitter to quickly get in touch with the Seazon team,
    • On YouTube to discover dishes through videos and meet the chefs who created them:

    Is Seazon a scam? Can we trust the brand?

    Seazon is a brand based in France and Belgium that belongs to the company Foodcheri. Established in 2015, this business is located in the 11th arrondissement of Paris and is registered with the companies register. Therefore, it is indeed a reliable and compliant professional brand, subject to the rights and responsibilities of French law.

    👉 For more information on Foodchéri and the creation of Seazon, feel free to check out this very comprehensive press kit that outlines the origins of the service.

    Unfortunately, Seazon does not have a direct phone number, but you can reach out to the company via chat or email, seven days a week. Additionally, the company is active on social media and takes the time to personally respond to Google reviews to help resolve any issues that customers may encounter.

    While doing further research to write this testimonial, I found that the feedback on Seazon's customer service was generally very positive.

    Seazon is a traditional French company, known for its reliable commitments and operations. The only downside is the lack of a telephone customer service.

    My verdict on Seazon ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    In recent months, I've tried Seazon several times, albeit sporadically, to save time. I've never ordered more than 10 meals at once, and I've always been pleased with the variety of recipe choices. Some dishes, particularly those inspired by world cuisine, were excellent. I've never encountered a meal that tasted bad or was past its sell-by date.

    As I try to eat local and reduce my impact on the environment, Seazon's commitments were very important to me. I appreciated knowing where the ingredients for my meals were sourced and discovering that many were local. I did feel a bit disappointed about the waste caused by the plastic containers the meals are delivered in: this could be improved in 2022.

    As has happened to other customers as seen in the Google reviews, I also experienced a delivery delay with Chronofresh: the prepared meals arrived the day after the expected date. I therefore contacted Seazon’s customer service, who were very friendly and reassured me that the cold chain had not been interrupted. However, if I noticed any issues with a dish (smell, texture, appearance of the packaging...), they assured me they would refund it.

    However, I advise you not to order too many dishes at once: they spoil after 6 days, and since these meals are made with fresh ingredients, you wouldn’t want to risk food poisoning!

    I highly recommend Seazon to anyone looking to save time while enjoying balanced and quality meals! I believe these meals are perfect for getting back into good eating habits!

    I've also read numerous reviews where people claimed they lost weight with Seazon. So, it could be a good starting point for dietary balance, alongside a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, and support from a nutritionist.

    Does Seazon offer Halal meals?

    No, Seazon unfortunately does not offer Halal prepared meals. However, the brand does provide a wide range of balanced vegetarian and plant-based meals that may be suitable for a Halal diet.

    Can you freeze Seazon meals?

    Yes! You can freeze your Seazon meals. However, the chefs do not recommend this option if you want to enjoy all the flavours of your dishes.

    👉 If you decide to freeze your Seazon meals, I recommend a slow thaw by placing your dish in the fridge for 24 hours before consuming it. This will help preserve its flavour and nutritional value! 😉

    Depending on the option you choose, a Seazon meal costs between €6.90 and €9.97.
