school lunches delivered
NZ schools onboard
local cafe's and caterers
fundraising option for schools
In 2008, Auckland Mum Sandra Maclean saw a growing problem - too many families were struggling to provide healthy school lunches, and schools were overwhelmed by the admin of running lunch programmes.
In response, she launched Ezlunch in 2010. Her goal was to support families, empower local food businesses, and give schools a lunch solution that required zero admin. Today, that same spirit drives us.
Ezlunch connects schools with trusted local cafés and caterers to deliver fresh, nutritious, and affordable lunches - ordered online and delivered directly to school.
We partner with 300+ schools, support 180+ food providers, and delivered over 770,000 lunches nationwide in 2024. Our platform is powered by Kindo, NZ’s leading school payment and ordering system. That means: No envelopes, no cash, no paperwork, real-time visibility for parents and schools and seamless integration with your school’s fundraising goals
We believe that kids thrive when they eat food that’s made with care, not preservatives. That’s why every Ezlunch meal is made fresh each morning by real people in real kitchens - local cafés and caterers who care about quality and flavour.
Mornings are chaotic. School admin is stretched. Volunteers are busy. Ezlunch was built to make life easier - not add to the to-do list. From same-day online ordering to seamless school integration through Kindo, everything we do is designed to be simple, fast, and reliable. Less friction. More function.
We’re not just here to deliver lunches - we’re here to deliver value to everyone involved. That means supporting schools with fundraising, backing local food businesses, and helping families have one less thing to worry about. Our model creates a little win for everyone, every time someone clicks ‘Order’.

"I just wanted to say how thankful I am that you were so helpful when I was rushing against the clock this morning. I really appreciated your help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
You order lunch and they deliver to school at lunchtime. They are life savers and the price is excellent. Every time I am sick or don’t have time etc. I order from them and it’s worked great.
"Such a great menu. My son eats everything which is amazing. Kudos to the team! The convenience of ordering online is perfect for families like ours"
