Bento Box Catering for Office Events in Singapore: Everything You Need to Know

Bento box catering has become one of the most popular choices for office events in Singapore, and for good reason. It is convenient, individually packed, and works for everything from daily team lunches to large-scale corporate events. Here is what you need to know when ordering halal bento catering for your office.


Why Offices Choose Bento Catering


Unlike a shared buffet, bento sets give each person their own complete meal: rice, protein, vegetables, and sides; all in one box. This makes bento ideal for:


  • Office lunches where staff eat at their desks
  • Training sessions and seminars with back-to-back schedules
  • Events where headcount may shift at the last minute
  • Teams with mixed dietary requirements that need clear labelling

At Makan Mate, our Oriental bento range is the most popular choice for offices, a wide selection of chicken, fish, and seafood options at accessible price points starting from $6.80/pax, with a minimum order of 10 pax.


Beyond Oriental: Korean, Western and Healthy Options


While Oriental bento is the most ordered, we also offer:


  • Korean bento sets: six different protein-based sets (including Beef Bulgogi, Smoked Salmon, and Garlic Butter Prawn), plus a Korean vegan option
  • Premium Western bento: upscale options featuring cod fish, chargrilled prawn, and pasta, ideal for client lunches or VIP events
  • Healthy bento: HPB-certified options with brown rice and grilled or steamed preparations, suited for corporate wellness initiatives

Can We Mix Bento Types in One Order?


Yes. If your office has staff with different preferences, some want Korean, some prefer Oriental, others need vegetarian; we can discuss customising your order to include a mix of bento types within the same delivery. Just let us know your requirements when placing your order and our team will work out the best combination for your group.


Trusted by Long-Term Corporate Clients


Makan Mate has provided ongoing bento catering for corporate clients across Singapore, including a long-time travel industry group and Nokia, who have continued to order from us for many years. For offices looking for a reliable bento caterer they can order from regularly, whether weekly, monthly, or for occasional events, we welcome the opportunity to build that same relationship with your team.


Ordering Bento Catering for Your Office


Bento orders require a minimum of 10 pax, with a delivery fee per trip. If your office is near Jurong, self-collection is available to save on delivery, see our self-pickup guide for details.
