Lean Cuisine is a brand of frozen entrées and dinners sold in the United States by Nestlé Prepared Foods, in Canada by Nestlé Canada, and in Australia by Vesco (under a licensing agreement with Nestlé). The brand began as low-fat, low-calorie versions of Stouffer's products. Today, Lean Cuisine includes traditional dinners, ethnic dishes, pizzas, whole-grain Spa Cuisine entreés, and panini. The headquarters of Nestlé Prepared Foods is located in Solon, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland.
In February 2023, Nestlé Canada announced their intentions to wind down and exit the frozen meals and pizza business in the Canadian market within the next six months. Production and sales in the United States market are not affected by this decision and will continue.
