After Jacqueline Linder´s kids were born, rather than get stuck at a drive thru, she started packing food for them. They grew older, started school, and, you guessed it…more food packing! Concerned about chemicals in plastic containers leaching into their food, she went on a search for alternatives. Stainless steel was the perfect material; it’s safe, lightweight, and non-breakable. However, she couldn’t find stainless steel food containers anywhere—not online, not in restaurant supply stores, not in kitchen gadget stores.

After a year or so of searching for stainless steel food containers and not finding what she needed, I built it. In 2008, I launched LunchBots from the garage of my home in Northern California. LunchBots is a family-owned business and their mission is simple: to provide the highest quality, best-looking, healthiest food containers on the planet.
