How to plan an office snack order in Nairobi.
Office snack orders are easier when you start with headcount, serving time and the type of meeting before deciding the exact mix of snacks.
A five-person team meeting and a fifty-person office tea break do not need the same packaging, quantity or timing. The first job is to confirm how many people are expected and whether snacks are being served as a light tea break, breakfast addition or part of a longer meeting.
Once the purpose is clear, you can choose a balanced mix of sweet and savoury items and send the order early enough for fresh preparation.
Start with the confirmed headcount
Use the number of people who are likely to attend, then add a small practical buffer if the office expects walk-ins or extra guests. Ordering only by trays or packs without knowing the headcount can lead to too little food or unnecessary leftovers.
Choose a sweet and savoury balance
A mixed tea break can be more flexible than serving only one type of snack. Samosas or other savoury items can balance doughnuts, muffins, mahamri or kaimati. The right mix depends on the meeting time, whether tea is being served and how filling the office wants the break to be.
Match the snacks to the meeting time
Morning sessions may suit breakfast-style items and tea-friendly snacks, while an afternoon meeting may need a lighter selection. If the event runs through a normal meal time, snack portions alone may not be enough, so tell the supplier what role the food is expected to play.
Confirm minimum quantities and available packs
Different Moh Bakes snacks may have different minimum order quantities or pack sizes. Confirm the current minimum for the selected items before finalising the headcount. This is especially important when combining several products in one office order.
Plan packaging and distribution
For a boardroom, shared platters may be practical. For training sessions, individual packs or clearly portioned items may reduce disruption. If people will carry snacks away, say so before packing so the order can be prepared in a suitable format.
Give an office receiving contact
Large buildings can delay delivery when the rider reaches security or reception without a clear contact. Send the building name, office or floor, landmark, delivery window and the phone number of the person who will actually receive the snacks.
