Plan a tasty snack break
How many tasty cups?
Headcount × days × assumed usage, rounded up to whole cups.
The planned 60-cup box covers this estimate, with 10 extra cups.
Use this as a starting estimate. We will quote your chosen selection and any delivery or packing charges. Delivery is available throughout Cape Town.
Help me chooseCount the people, days and cups
Multiply headcount by days and expected cups per person per day, then round up to a whole cup. For example, 20 employees x 5 days x 0.5 cups = 50 cups. A 60-cup box leaves 10 cups above that estimate.
That 0.5 rate is an example, rather than measured demand. Adjust it to your team's habits.
Make room for different favourites
Some colleagues want a buttery cashew cup, others a chewy cranberry snack or a sweet treat. Ask what people enjoy before choosing the selection.
Let the first selection teach you
See which cups go first and how long the selection lasts. Use that feedback to plan the next one. If you need more than 120 cups, tell us your total quantity in the office brief.
