Scan, pay, go.
A So.Fed cooler is a glass-door fridge and freezer inside a local business, stocked and rotated by us. No counter, no account, no app to install. Your phone’s camera is the checkout.
Three steps, about a minute.
Pick it up
Every package has its own label with the cut, the weight and the price. Take what you want.
Scan the label
Point your phone camera at the QR code and tap the link. Tap “Add another item” and scan the next one.
Pay and go
Apple Pay, Google Pay or a card. The receipt lands on your phone. That’s it.
The fridge is this week. The freezer is next.
The fridge holds fresh cuts, rotated by us on a short clock. Anything that hits its date comes out. The freezer holds the same cuts frozen at the plant, for stocking up.
What’s in a cooler: whatever is in the case that week, each package labeled with the cut, the weight and the price. More from local farms as the program grows. Cooler locations are on the map.
Host a So.Fed cooler.
You give us the floor space and an outlet. We own the cooler, stock it, rotate it and handle every sale. Your customers get real local food. You don’t run a meat program.

- A fridge and a freezer side by side, against a wall with an outlet
