The Foodery Has Closed for Good; Cites COVID-19 Crisis As Reason for Closing

A local business that focused on food delivery has shut down permanently, and the coronavirus outbreak appears to have been the cause of its closure.

According to a message sent from Lillie Marshall, The Foodery is no longer in business, with a note on the company's website saying the following:

Amid the COVID-19 crisis, it is no longer possible for us to continue operations. Our methods of preparation and delivery of our products inherently requires intense team collaboration and interaction with suppliers, purveyors and customers. The effect of this crisis on our team and operations has become too uncertain to continue accepting customer orders, so it is in the best interest of all of our stakeholders to close The Foodery.

The Foodery, which was headquartered in Malden, was known for its ever-changing seasonal dishes made using locally sourced and organic ingredients. The food delivery company first started out approximately seven years ago.
