Why Nutritious Catering is the Secret to Bringing Teams Back Together
It’s never been harder to bring employees back into the office for in person meetings. Hybrid and remote work are here to stay, but research shows that gathering teams together at least once a week is vital for culture, collaboration, and innovation. At Pow Food, we believe that what you serve at these gatherings matters just as much as the agenda. Providing nutritious, sustainable and enticing food isn’t just a perk, it’s a powerful tool to draw people in, keep them engaged and perform to their full potential.
Why Weekly In Person Meetings Matter
Studies show that getting teams together face to face:
Builds trust, relationships
Improves communication
Sparks creativity and innovation
Increases focus and accountability
Supports wellbeing and connection
Encourages mentorship and professional development
In short, in person time strengthens the human side of work that virtual meetings struggle to replicate.
Food as the Catalyst for Connection
So where does food fit into this? Shared meals have always been a cultural anchor, a reason to gather, talk, and bond. In the workplace, providing food at meetings and team days has a similar effect: it makes people want to come together, linger longer, and engage more deeply.
At Pow Food, we go beyond standard office catering. Our offering is designed to fuel not just your team’s bodies, but also your culture:
Nutritious and Healthy
Nutritionist-designed menus that support energy, focus and productivity — no mid meeting slumps, just food that helps teams perform at their best.
Carbon Conscious
As a certified B Corp, we track and reduce the carbon impact of every meal, helping your business meet sustainability goals while demonstrating care for people and the planet. We also offer the opportunity to fully offset your office menu with our partnership with future forest.
Educational Experiences
Our interactive nutrition talks and workshops give employees the knowledge to make better choices for their health, creating lasting impact beyond the meeting room.
Delicious and Enticing Menus
From vibrant balanced bowls to warming seasonal dishes, our menus are crafted by chefs to be both nutritious and irresistibly delicious — food that excites people and encourages them back into the office.
