What is the cost of poor food choices?
Poor diet on the job is costing countries around the world up to 20 per cent in lost productivity, either due to malnutrition that plagues some one billion people in developing countries or the excess weight and obesity afflicting an equal number mostly in industrialised economies. Promoting healthy lifestyle choices within the workplace has been shown to result in improvements in diet and physical activity which in turn relates to increased morale, increased productivity and reduced sick days.

We are passionate about food and healthy lifestyles, and plan for success by setting achievable and meaningful goals help develop more healthy, sustainable eating habits. We have access to innovative analysis tools to gain detailed knowledge and understanding of the unique needs, tastes and preferences of your employees. We recognise that promoting health within the workplace has moved beyond traditional education and strive to promote a more holistic approach to health in the workplace.
