Why the Fruit Route

There are many benefits to offering fresh fruit in the office and we at The Fruit Route believe we can provide your office with those benefits along with our leading customer service and simple ordering process.

Here are a few reasons your office and other leading companies look to us to offer fresh fruit and encourage a healthy lifestyle among employees:

Healthy Employees
Healthy employees are a critical part of a successful business, especially as companies become increasingly demanding with respect to workload and working hours:

       A regular intake of fresh fruit helps to raise energy levels and alertness, reduce the risk of illness and reduce the number of sick days.

       By feeling healthy, employees will feel more positive about themselves and their work.

       For maximum effect, fruit must be made available on workplace floors close to where employees work – if it is only available in ground floor coffee shops and food carts, consumption of fruit is significantly lower.

Happy Employees
Providing fresh fruit at work is one of the most cost effective employee benefits available because it:

       Increased job satisfaction.

       Reduces absenteeism.

       Improves corporate image and reputation.

Lower Health Insurance costs

       Research shows 34 percent of the American workforce is obese and that obesity is associated with a 36 percent increase in spending on health care services -- more than smoking or problem drinking.

       Lifestyle choices contribute to chronic illness -- and ultimately higher health insurance costs.

       The heaviest employees file twice as many workers' comp claims than do normal weight employees, and their medical costs are seven times higher.

An Attractive Office
Displaying attractive fruit boxes of colorful fresh fruit brightens up the workplace - in much the same way as fresh flowers do!

 
 
 
Fruit is one of the most
healthy and natural foods
in existence. There are
thousands of different types
of fruit available to eat, all of
which provide us with strong
health benefits. Fruit contains
a large number of naturally
occurring vitamins, minerals
and plant phytochemicals that
help benefit health. It has also
been shown that eating the
whole fruit or juice is best to
gain the benefits rather than
taking supplements to provide
each nutrient separately.
