Equifax had a busy one at their North Sydney office, and a platter of 25 sandwiches, wraps, and baguettes was exactly what the afternoon called for. Something like this works because it moves quickly around a room. People grab what they want, there’s no serving involved, and the table clears itself over the course of an hour without anyone needing to manage it.
The mix of formats matters more than it might seem. Wraps hold together cleanly for people eating at their desks, baguettes tend to go first in a standing crowd, and sandwiches fill the middle ground. For a team the size of Equifax’s, having all three meant the platter lasted long enough for stragglers to get in without finding half-eaten leftovers.
25 portions at that office landed just right.
