Why the Right Snacks Matter (It’s Not Just About Treats)

Real energy, fewer slumps: Protein + fiber keeps the 2pm crash away better than candy alone.
Culture boost: A tidy, well-stocked breakroom signals care and professionalism.
Time saved: Fewer coffee runs, more focused time for your team.

The Snack Mix That Works for Most LA Teams

We’ve tested a few combinations. For most offices, this simple ratio wins:

40% Protein picks (nut mixes, jerky, protein bars)
40% Smart carbs (whole-grain chips/crackers, oat bars, fruit snacks)
20% Fun treats (yes, chocolate belongs… in moderation)

Have dietary needs? Include a small shelf tag for GF, V, DF—quick wins for inclusivity.

Office Coffee: Pick the Setup That Fits Your Size

1–25 people: Single-serve brewer + rotating premium pods or compostable capsules.
25–75 people: Bean-to-cup machine (espresso + drip) with a single-serve backup for bursts.
75+ people: Bean-to-cup + drip carafe + cold brew on tap for warm months.

Pro tip: keep a small “perk bar” nearby—oat milk, cinnamon, cocoa powder, and flavored syrups.

Starter Bundles We Recommend

Not sure where to begin? Try one of these and refine from there:

Balanced Basics: mixed nuts, protein bars, kettle-style chips, fruit snacks, dark chocolate squares.
Wellness Lean-In: low-sugar bars, trail mix with seeds, popped chips, hummus chips, dried fruit.
Treat Friday Add-On: mini cookies, specialty chocolate, seasonal limited-edition snacks.

How to Keep It Easy (and Organized)

Set par levels: Reorder when any items drop below 30%.
Label shelves: “Protein,” “Smart Carbs,” “Treats,” “Drinks” = cleaner look + faster refills.
Seasonal rotation: Swap 10–20% of items monthly to keep things interesting.
