Yes, but we've made it simple!
We recommend that you start enjoying the food in your Prepped Pantry kit six months before the end of its three-year shelf-life period.
This gives you plenty of time to incorporate the food into your everyday meals, minimise waste and make the most of your investment.
At the same time, you can order your next Prepped Pantry 30 kit, ensuring you're stocked up and ready for another three years.
Use it. Enjoy it. Replenish it. Stay prepared!
Always check individual best-before dates, as some products may need to be used earlier.

You certainly can put together your own emergency food supply, but there's more to long-term food storage than simply buying extra groceries.
At The Prepped Pantry, we've done the planning, sourcing and preparation for you. We carefully select long-life foods and use specialised equipment and food-safe packaging designed to protect suitable dry ingredients from moisture, oxygen and light, helping extend their storage life.
Our aim is to provide a food supply designed to last for a minimum of three years under appropriate storage conditions, without the need for you to research preservation methods, purchase specialised packaging equipment or spend hours assembling everything yourself.
Each kit is thoughtfully organised into two sturdy storage tubs, making it easy to store away until you need it.
We've taken care of the preparation, so you can enjoy the peace of mind of being prepared.

Not at all!
Your kit can also provide a useful food reserve during unexpected financial pressures, illness, supply disruptions or other situations when getting to the shops becomes difficult.
Preparedness is about having options and peace of mind.
