Marley Kitchen and Chef’d, America’s first and only online meal kit marketplace, today announced a collaboration that gives consumers the opportunity to create family favorite recipes of the Marley’s right at home. Through this co-branded initiative, consumers are able to browse and order from a collection of fresh, Caribbean-inspired recipes created by four members of the beloved family – Rita, Cedella, Ziggy, and Rohan. Through its flexible fulfillment and delivery capabilities, Chef’d will provide customers with the recipes and pre-portioned, fresh and ready-to-cook ingredients within 24-48 hours of their order.
