Sifted
About Sifted
Jess Legge and Kimberly Lexow were masters of the 9 to 5 - working at a high‑growth tech start‑up, with one question: “Could the work lunch be better?”
It’s an expectation these days that work is hard and fast. But lunch doesn’t have to be that way. Imagining an office where employees want to stick around and share a table of inspired food, Legge and Lexow founded Sifted in 2015.
Since then we’ve delivered millions of meals to Fortune 500s and high‑growth startups across the U.S. When COVID‑19 hit, our clients needed a partner to help them manage their new normal. That’s when we created our virtual team‑building experiences. Now as companies fully embrace the future of a flexible workplace, Sifted has become a comprehensive employee experience partner offering both in‑office catering services and an extensive portfolio of engaging virtual experiences for distributed teams.
