The team at Entrée Kitchen knows firsthand the daily struggles their customers face. By addressing the “what’s for dinner?” dilemma, they free up valuable time for families to spend together, pursue hobbies, or simply relax after a long day. As a mother of three, including twin boys, Diane Beaulieu has a profound understanding of the challenges faced by busy families. Her transition from a successful career in the restaurant world, through her years in the corporate world which culminated into being named the First Woman Subsidiary Manager in the world, to a successful business owner serving the local communities, have shaped Entree Kitchen’s mission to provide nutritious and time-saving meal solutions.

While working for her last employer, an international company Diane, felt her world was large, but now as a local business owner she feels it is even bigger with much stronger connections right in her own “backyard”.  This relatable story resonates with customers, creating a sense of connection and loyalty with customers.  The community appreciates the authenticity the story behind Entrée Kitchen provides.
