Elevated Dining Experiences

Pinch Delivers a New Food and Beverage Experience with Parcel

— August 31, 2020 — Eco
The food and beverage experience has always been of importance to many consumers—especially those who enjoy stimulating their tastebuds. The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed the way individuals handle themselves in public and business environments. Attempting to mitigate the stress of this change is Pinch who launched Parcel— "an elevated, at-home food and beverage experience, meant to connect people, even when they're apart."

The product is intended to help companies reinvent how they engage in entertainment, fundraisers, or virtual gatherings. Emphasizing a special occasion, Parcel offers "a balanced and diverse menu plated in chic minimalist reusable steamer baskets and imaginative cocktails paired with thoughtfully curated glass and cork barware."

In addition to this, the food and beverage experience is also designed to be zero-waste.
