As parents, we NEED a convenient food solution for our children. As parents, we WANT our children to eat healthily. So, it begs the question, are school canteens able to meet BOTH these needs?

An innovative new app allowing parents to order healthy school lunches from local cafes
About us
LunchFox is an innovative new school lunch service. Our app allows parents to order healthy school lunches from local cafes, having them delivered directly to school. With a focus on nutritionally balanced, child friendly food, our menus walk parents through five essential food groups when customising their order. This is our way of making a healthy choice, an easy choice. With low overheads, LunchFox keeps its commission to a minimum. We give schools 5% commission from every order and leave cafe owners with 85% of their revenue, significantly more than other food delivery services. By opening up a whole new market to local cafe owners, our economy boosting potential is undeniable. Our community minded business model has seen us gain some encouraging recognition. We won the Start, Now Pre-Accelerator Pitch Event and were finalists in the New Small Business of the Year Award and the Her Start Up Pitch Night. We currently operate across two states in Australia (NSW and VIC) but have seen interest come in from England and New Zealand. We are gaining momentum and are just so excited to watch this start up grow!

My word, May was mad! 😜🤯 We had two new schools starting in the same week: new levels of growth and excitement for the LunchFox team! With #melbourne and #sydney remaining the top two performing states, we welcomed a school in Lilydale, VIC and a school in Avalon, NSW. Both menus are divine, and the support seen from families at each school has been incredible. #startup #startupstories #schoollunch #foodapp #foodservice
