With JLL Experience Management, [ezCater](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/subway-catering-program) introduced a new program called Relish that makes daily lunches available to employees as they return to work. Relish offers individually packaged and labeled meals, which can be placed in a designated spot so that people can grab a bag and go—and still enjoy safe, convenient access to food at the office.

As well as supporting employees with [contactless deliveries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doordash-for-business), Relish’s daily rotation of menus helps to support local restaurants. Additionally, 4% of proceeds from each Relish order placed at a JLL property help to support Feeding [America](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-protein-commuter) via CaterCares.

With businesses adapting to the new future of work, innovative solutions like Relish by ezCater are being implemented to help reduce traffic during the busy lunchtime rush.
