About Us
Like many parents out there, Cape Town mother of three, Vanessa Gardner, was increasingly frustrated with the daily chore of preparing lunchboxes. How could she make them interesting, fun and nutritionally-balanced?
Vanessa came across the idea of a compartmentalised lunchbox. She realised that this layout could help guide portion control and encourage food group variety.
Vanessa wanted to create a South African-made lunchbox that could hold wet foodstuffs (like yoghurt) without leaking, as well as a variety of other food items and nibbles, each in their own separate spaces.
She researched nutritional guidelines and spoke to local foodies to gain a better understanding of what growing minds require to function optimally. Experimenting at home was easy, with three eager mouths to feed each day!
The result? The CRUNCHBOX - a single lid, compartmentalised lunchbox with a spill-proof design that makes food fun, and encourages hassle-free healthy eating habits.
At CRUNCHBOX, we truly care about the importance of nutrition for young minds and bodies. We’re proud to partner with the Peninsula School Feeding Association so that with every CRUNCHBOX sold, a child in need is fed for a day.
“It is an unassailable fact that nutrition enables learning. Children need a varied and balanced diet, while parents strive for convenience and simplicity. I believe CRUNCHBOX provides the solution.”
