Long-shelf-life food solutions for workplace shelter-in-place, remote operations, and continuity planning.  

Emergency food is one of the first constraints during extended disruptions. Total Prepare supplies scalable food solutions that support short-term shelter-in-place needs as well as longer-duration events where access to normal services is limited. 

Our food lineup is built around three practical categories: long-term freeze-dried meals for extended storage, ready-to-deploy MREs for immediate field use, and compact ration bars for fast calories with minimal preparation. These options can be deployed as standalone supplies or integrated into workplace kits and facility-level preparedness programs.  

Freeze Dried Food Storage – 25 Year Shelf Life 

For long-term planning and bulk storage, we carry freeze dried meal solutions designed for extended shelf life and consistent rotation planning. 

• Augason Farms: Reliable staple-focused food storage options suitable for larger reminder programs and facility reserves. 
• ReadyWise: Flexible assortment options with a wide range of meal types and packaging formats. 
• Legacy Food Storage: Premium-oriented options built around long-term storage and family-style planning. 

Typical use cases include multi-site reserves, reception centre support, and shelter-in-place programs where you need predictable storage life and scalable volume. 

MREs – Ready-to-Deploy Meals 

For immediate readiness where cooking is not practical, MREs provide complete meals that are durable, portable, and easy to issue. 

• Total Prepare MREs: A practical standard for organizations that want consistent menus and predictable procurement. 
• Halal MRE option: Added to support inclusive planning requirements and diverse staff needs. 

Common applications include mobile teams, field crews, remote worksites, emergency operations, and deployments where logistics are uncertain.  

Emergency Ration Bars – Fast Calories, Minimal Requirements 

For rapid distribution and short-duration disruptions, ration bars are compact, non-perishable, and require no preparation. 

• SOS 3600 Calorie Bar: A recognized emergency ration format for fast caloric coverage. 
• Millennium Bars: A flexible ration bar option that integrates well into kits and workplace distribution. 

These are well-suited to desk-level coverage, grab-and-go kits, vehicles, and “first 24 hours” resilience planning.
