Our review
Oddbox Delivery Ltd is incorporated in England and Wales under company number 09638976, according to its competition terms. The website terms name Oddbox Delivery Ltd as owner and operator.
Oddbox sells boxes of rescued produce, with swaps and extras from a weekly rescue list.
What does Oddbox deliver?
Oddbox delivers fruit and veg boxes, with up to nine types of veg and four types of fruit in the standard box. A recipes section exists.
Overnight delivery is described as milkman-style.
How does Oddbox handle data?
The privacy policy says data may be stored on the GetSwift Inc. platform, which operates outside the UK and EEA. It also names Braze and Xero as processors.
This matters for customers who want data to stay in Europe.
Where is Oddbox weaker than Blue Apron?
Oddbox has no portioned recipe kits. Blue Apron is the better fit for recipe-led cooking.
The pages cover the UK only.
Points against
Oddbox is a produce box, not a meal kit, and its privacy policy names a processor outside the UK and EEA. See Gousto for recipe boxes.
