About IFCO

IFCO is the world’s leading provider of Reusable Packaging Containers (RPCs) for fresh foods. Operating in over 50 countries, IFCO champions sustainability, reducing food waste and environmental impact by replacing single-use packaging with eco-friendly alternatives.

With a team of 250+ employees based in Pullach im Isartal near Munich, IFCO sought to extend its sustainability ethos to its workforce—starting at the lunch table.

The Challenge

IFCO's location offered limited dining options, making it difficult for employees to consistently access fresh, healthy meals.

This lack of choices not only impacted well-being but also reduced opportunities for team interaction during lunch breaks. Without an in-house canteen, employees had to rely on external food options, leading to inconsistent meal quality, higher costs, and logistical challenges.

As IFCO’s workforce grew, the company sought a sustainable, cost-effective lunch solution that aligned with its values while fostering employee engagement and workplace satisfaction.

A Tailored Benefits Program

To enhance employee satisfaction and well-being, IFCO introduced Bella&Bona’s daily lunch program as part of its corporate benefits package.

Employees gained access to a seamless digital ordering system, offering fresh and diverse meals tailored to dietary preferences.

The tax-free benefit structure allowed IFCO to provide this perk in a cost-effective way while ensuring compliance with corporate policies.

"Convenient, fresh, and nutritious meals that save time without sacrificing quality or taste. Bella&Bona has transformed our employee lunch experience, providing a seamless digital ordering system with diverse, high-quality meals."

Workplace Renovation

Beyond improving employee satisfaction, IFCO saw an opportunity to reinforce its sustainability initiatives. Bella&Bona’s reusable packaging system aligned perfectly with IFCO’s commitment to reducing waste.

By eliminating disposable food containers and minimizing food waste, the collaboration contributed to a greener workplace.  Our time-saving meal service helped employees make the most of their lunch breaks, creating a more relaxed and interactive environment.

With our efficient approach, employees saved valuable time, turning lunch breaks into a more enjoyable and engaging experience.
