"Bento" is a lunch delivery service for offices with the same concept as "confectionery" and "medicine". Ask people who want to eat when they want to eat, and charge only for the reduced number.


The feature of the "standing valve" is that it has achieved an expiration date of 5 days by using its unique pack technology. This long expiry date and the rental of refrigerators have made it possible to provide a boxed lunch service that has a system similar to that of medicines and sweets.


The service delivers 15 lunch boxes of 3 types every Tuesday. On Friday, the staff will collect the price and the remaining lunch box. It is said that the collected lunch boxes will not be discarded, but will be eaten by the collection staff, aiming to achieve zero waste. But what if you have a lot of bento left over? Only this point is a little worrisome ... or rather, the body of the recovery staff is worried.


The test service is scheduled to start on January 18, 2016. The service covers Shibuya Ward, Shinjuku Ward, Chiyoda Ward, Toyoshima Ward, Taito Ward, Chuo Ward, Shinagawa Ward, Bunkyo Ward, Sumida Ward, Koto Ward, Minato Ward, and Arakawa Ward. And companies in the Yokohama Mitsui Building.

The cost of introducing the service is 32,400 yen per set (rental of one refrigerator and delivery / collection of 15 meals every week), and the price of the lunch box is 650 yen per meal.


Some say that the medicines and sweets were "useful in the event of a disaster." The "standing valve" may also be useful when an earthquake occurs and you have to stay overnight at the company.
