Healthy Lunch Delivery Service Boosts Productivity

(PHOENIX) - When employees leave the office for a fast-food lunch, they often return full of carbohydrates and ready for a nap. When they add an errand or two to their lunchtime travels, the lunch “hour” can turn into an hour and a half, cutting even deeper into their productivity. And if they eat unhealthy food on a regular basis, employees’ rates of absenteeism and illness tend to rise as well.

Recognizing the workplace need for higher productivity through better eating habits, a new Valley company is bringing delicious gourmet lunches right to your workplace. The Company Chef, which opened for business this spring, delivers healthy gourmet lunches to businesses so employees don’t have to leave the office for their noontime meal. The gourmet meals are prepared with a delicious variety of fresh ingredients totaling just 550 calories, and they’re delivered to businesses for just $10.95 plus tax. Geared toward serving businesses, the minimum order is ten meals per delivery.

“As a business owner myself, I looked for a way to reduce employee time away from work and increase after-lunch productivity. The best way I found is to provide your team with a healthy lunch so they don’t have to leave,” said Aaron Bromagem, founder and president of The Company Chef. “A good meal makes everyone happier, and the healthy ingredients keep you from crashing two hours after lunch.”

Companies such as law firms, banks, financial institutions, insurance companies and engineering firms count on The Company Chef to provide the perfect lunch when there are clients or important visitors to impress. Entrees like Wok Seared Shrimp, Grilled Orange Balsamic Chicken Salad, Mediterranean Salmon and Red Wine & Garlic Flank Steak are certain to make a better impression than a sack lunch or a slice of pizza.

As many businesses look to reduce their carbon footprints, taking their employees off the road at lunchtime is a great way to go green. The individualized meals come in a recycled paper box and are served in recyclable plastic containers. For regular customers, The Company Chef will even pick up the recyclables and make sure they escape the landfill.

“The Company Chef delivers lunches that impress clients, make employees healthier and happier, reduce gasoline usage and improve productivity,” said Bromagem. “We believe that’s a winning combination.”
