Picnic Box is launching in Melbourne just in time for Mother's Day

Announcement posted by Picnic Box 02 May 2019

Founder and CEO Diane Stanbra came up with this innovative business in New Zealand,   7 years ago after attending an outdoor cinema event, thinking wouldn’t it be great if you could get a delicious, freshly-packed picnic at these types of events. So, she developed exactly that, and is excited to share her fabulous picnics with Australia.

Picnic Box packs the most amazing produce from Australian suppliers, beautifully presented in 100% compostable packaging. “We care where your food comes from, how it’s made, presented and packaged. It’s all about minimum fuss for you, and maximum enjoyment of our picnics”.   

 
 

Having participated in the Slingshot and Caltex ‘Spark’, a new innovation initiative that sees them working closely with start-up’s and entrepreneurs, Picnic Box will be partnering with the Caltex Foodary in South Yarra on Mothers’ Day.

“Mothers’ Day is often not an indulgent, restful day for our Mums. They still end up cooking, cleaning, or shopping for food etc. So, we are thrilled to have mother and daughter duo Saskia and Maggie Beer create a premium Picnic for your Mothers’ Day, incorporating stunning produce from their farm.  And of course, our classic picnic and the cheese and treats box will also be available.

It couldn’t be easier. Order your Mother’s Day Picnic on our website, and collect your picnic hamper in a chiller-bag on ice – all ready to go, from the Foodary (Caltex) in South Yarra, 262-268 Punt Road between 7am – 3pm on Mother’s Day Sunday 12th May.  When you have finished enjoying your picnic, the packaging can go straight into your home compost… including the rubbish bag.

Picnic Box are also excited to be providing stunning picnics for corporate and event catering, fundraising, travel, tourism and special occasions. We can’t wait to share our beautiful picnics with you.
