Our restaurant recently shifted 50% of our lunch menu to plant-based options, and within three months, our business lunch bookings increased by 35%. This was unexpected, but I’m curious if others have experienced similar results after introducing more plant-based options.

That’s impressive! Was it the specific dishes you introduced, or did you also change the marketing approach targeting corporate clients? Sometimes, it’s not just the menu but how it’s positioned that attracts more business.

I had a similar experience when consulting for a corporate cafeteria. We saw a 20% increase in plant-based meal purchases after highlighting the environmental benefits on our menu boards. Did you use any particular strategy to promote these new options?

I believe the key lies in offering variety that meets different dietary needs. We’re seeing more demand for nutrient-dense, plant-based meals that can keep energy levels steady through afternoon meetings. Did you notice any particular dishes that were more popular?

Good question! Our ‘Chickpea Power Bowl’ and ‘Mushroom Banh Mi’ sandwich are top sellers. Beyond marketing, we trained our staff to answer questions about ingredients, addressing potential dietary concerns, which has been well-received.

From a freelancer’s perspective, I often choose venues with diverse menus for client meetings. Plant-based options are a win-win because they’re often healthier yet substantial, which is important for afternoon productivity. Have you considered offering customizable options?

Customizable plant-based options could be a game-changer, especially for business lunches where dietary preferences vary. Transparency about ingredients can build trust, essential for catering to corporate clients.
