Gifting a fruit platter to a corporate client can be an effective and decidedly different “Thank You” or sign of appreciation. They also make great employee morale boosters. Especially as a pick-me up boost in mid-afternoon where you start getting that little sluggish feeling.

No one will doubt the importance fruit plays in the everyday diet. However, eating fruit on a daily basis is overlooked by many Americans. Increasing your daily consumption of fruit is one of the easiest ways to improve overall health. Providing valued clients or employees with fresh and delicious fruit shows you care.eat

Fruits are great sources of antioxidants that play important roles in helping you maintain your daily health. A great deal of research about antioxidants points to their effectiveness preventing cancer. Health professionals state antioxidants also help prevent heart disease. Studies concerning people who start a daily regimen consuming fresh fruit show that these consumers exhibit dramatic signs of age reversing with skin tone and texture improvement. There are certain nutrients and other elements you’ll never find in a supplement pill.

Your best choice will always be fresh fruit. These contain more nutrients and vitamins than dried or frozen fruit. Good Corporate caterers will never offer frozen varieties but will offer platters, trays or baskets containing a great variety of fruit. Visual stimulation is easily obtained with variety of color. Plus, yellow and orange fruits are great sources of beta carotene. Other fruits provide a great deal of vitamin C and other beneficial elements like calcium.
Choose a fruit selection that allows for individual portioning when supplying a tray of natural goodies at an event or as a perk for your trusted employees. A good variety of medium-sized apples, pears, oranges, etc. make for great hand-held snacking that won’t require you needing to supply plates and other eating utensils. However, presenting fruit trays or platter that contain bite-size pieces of cantaloupe, pineapple, melon, strawberries, although needing plates and or cups to hold these juicy tidbits, the resulting smiles and energy boosts more than make up for the extra effort.

You really can never get too much fruit. Recommended daily consumption is a minimum of five servings – a goal hardly reached by most working Americans. Providing fruit to employees on the job is an excellent way to create a healthy workplace-related benefit.

Additionally, corporate caterers can make sure you have bowls or baskets of fresh fruits at hand such as apples that may replace all those candy bowls scattered about the office making you, the employer an important part of the overall daily health of your employees.
