Flexible & fast employee catering at Wingcopter
Wingcopter GmbH is an innovative company in the aerospace industry.
With a focus on the production, development and operation of autonomous delivery drones, the company employs over 150 people.
Fast and flexible care - around the clock
Before the introduction of Foodji, employees were provided with food on site by various catering providers: the HelloFreshGo Smart Fridge and a mobile bakery offered a selection of meals such as sandwiches, salads and snacks. There is also a nearby shopping center for additional shopping options. Wingcopter's biggest challenge was to keep all employees fed quickly and at all times, especially when the break is a little shorter due to frequent meetings. With the introduction of Foodji, the company aimed to provide employees with uncomplicated catering that was available at all times. The aim was to extend break times and create more space for relaxation. At the same time, this was intended to increase employee satisfaction and offer a new benefit in the form of a meal allowance.
In the search for a suitable catering solution, Foodji impressed with its innovative and closed system. Wingcoper particularly appreciates Foodji's sustainable concept: with the help of artificial intelligence, the range is tailored to employee demand, thus avoiding overstocking and helping to reduce food waste. The combination of efficiency and sustainability fits perfectly with Wingcopter's corporate values and played a decisive role in the choice of catering provider.
Foodji as a reliable supply situation
The introduction of Foodji has made the supply situation more reliable. The break culture has changed to the extent that the time gained is used for communal activities such as table football or billiards.
Overall, the partnership with Foodji has improved the supply situation at Wingcopter, contributed to employee satisfaction and continues to be appreciated as a valuable part of the working environment.
Highlights in the decision
"I've actually had a Foodji moment a few times - whether it was on stressful days when I was rushing from meeting to meeting and was grateful to have something tangible to eat quickly. Or on days when I prefer to spend my lunch break in the woods behind our office building on a long walk with my dog and want to satisfy my hunger afterwards - I could rely on Foodji to adapt my meal to my daily routine."
Foodji as a valued benefit
A Foodji is currently in use in the Wingcopter "dining room", which is accessible to all areas (production, administration and development). The initial reaction of employees to Foodji has been extremely positive. The subsidization by the company, which includes a tax-free meal allowance of €15 per week, is particularly appreciated. This benefit is perceived by the Wingcopter team not only as financial relief, but also as appreciation. As a result, Wingcopter positions itself as an attractive employer that cares about the well-being of its employees.
The products from Foodji are perceived as high quality and the selection is also rated very positively - especially because the increasing demand for vegetarian dishes is met very well. The Wingcopter team's favorite dishes include pasta salad with feta and peppers, mango coconut curry with chicken breast fillet strips and the Caesar salad bowl.
Wingcopter also advertises a subsidized lunch from Foodji on its career website.
