Products & Services
We represent to the traditional fast food market what the Boston Tea Party was to the Colonists: A REVOLUTION
Fast, yes - fried, NO!
Quality, yes - expensive, NO!
Creative, yes - trendy, NO!
We're really a return to basics.
What does this mean to you? I'm glad you asked.
We feature:
Pita bread, exclusively, to make our Rollwiches, a highly nutritious bread made from flour, water, salt and yeast only. No sugar, oil, BHA, BHT, or BS,...(that's Baking Soda)!
Fresh ingredients carefully selected, lovingly prepared and combined.
Vegetarian selections to satisfy today's discriminating buyers.
Fresh meats trimmed lean and portioned to satisfy without waste.
Low Calorie/Low Fat choices that do not sacrifice taste (or size) and ...
Reasonable prices that please your wallet (most are priced around $4.00, and in today's economy that's a deal).
Training & Support
In addition to the support you will receive from Box Lunch Headquarters, We have developed a comprehensive form, and a procedure which will be invaluable in helping you select the proper location for your own Box Lunch business.
This procedure includes suitability requirements, which begin with the market area itself, and includes several other important considerations, such as: strip malls vs existing store-front vs new construction vs free-standing locations, parking, common area maintenance, delivery access, traffic patterns and counts and 'drive-through' possibilities, your business neighbors (including competition), utility inspection and costs, seating and expansion potential, handicapped access, lighting, the labor pool and transportation.
We've done it all before, and we'll help you get it as right as possible.
We like to think that Box Lunch training is different from other franchises in several important respects. The most important of which is the personalized approach: our training proceeds at a comfortable pace, conducted and supervised by the founders of Box Lunch, It is flexible in order to accommodate your personal commitments.
Our Training Program is mandatory for all new Franchisees and Managers. The cost of training two-people is included in the franchise fee. The training usually takes place at Headquarters, in Wellfleet, on Cape Cod. The in-depth training takes place on two levels:
First, the Owner and Manager are trained in all aspects of the business 'hands-on' experience in preparing the scores of menu items, operating equipment (from the slicer to the cash register), dealing with customers, record keeping, procurement and inventory management, cost control, and several other topics.
Second, the Owner and Manager are taught how to train their employees'. The entire process customarily takes twenty-four working days.
In addition to this personal training, an Operations Manual is provided for future reference, as well as an "Ingredients" Catalog for more thin 100 Rollwiches.
You will undergo actual purchasing experiences during your training, and you will learn how to work with Purchase Orders, Invoice Reconciliation, Record Keeping, and Inventory Control.
Please know that assistance is always as close as your telephone.

Are You a Good Fit for Box Lunch?
Overall, somewhere between $70k and $150 in capital should be sufficient for the average Box Lunch. However, this is not to say that you have to have that amount in cash. Many people buying a franchise augment their cash on hand with a loan from a bank, or the SBA, or family and friends.
