How Much Fruit Does a Team of 20 Actually Need Per Week?

How Much Fruit Should You Order for 20 Employees? 

For most offices, a team of 20 employees will typically need one standard-sized fruit delivery each week. The exact amount depends on how often your team is in the office, how popular the fruit is, and whether it's the only snack available. If employees are in the office every day and fruit is the main healthy snack, you may need a larger delivery or more frequent top-ups. 

A common mistake is ordering too much in the beginning. While it sounds generous, excess fruit often leads to unnecessary waste. Starting with a sensible amount allows you to see what your team enjoys most before adjusting future deliveries. Over time, you'll quickly learn which fruits disappear first and which are less popular. 

At The Fruit People, we help businesses find the right balance from the start. Rather than asking customers to guess, we recommend a box based on team size, working patterns and office attendance. If your office grows or more employees return to the workplace, your order can easily be updated to keep pace. 

The aim isn't simply to fill a fruit bowl. It's to ensure your team has fresh, healthy options available throughout the week without over-ordering. With flexible deliveries and expert advice, it's easy to find the right solution for your workplace.
