Crafty Releases Pantry Optimization Playbook: A Strategic Framework to Accelerate Workplace Performance

Crafty Releases the Pantry Optimization Playbook

CHICAGO — July 8, 2025 —Crafty, the leading provider of workplace food and beverage solutions, has launched The Pantry Optimization Playbook, a new resource designed to help workplace leaders transform their pantry programs into high-performing business assets.

With every workplace investment under pressure to perform, The Pantry Optimization Playbook delivers 12 proven strategies to reduce waste, maximize spend, and increase efficiencies—without compromising quality or experience. The report draws on Crafty’s experience managing pantry programs for companies like DraftKings, Stripe, and Zoom.

“Overlooking the strategy behind your pantry program is a costly mistake,” said Nate Rosenstock, CEO and Co-Founder of Crafty. “When run well, the pantry becomes one of the most visible, cost-effective, and high-impact tools in the workplace. It reinforces your company’s ability to deliver on its promises—internally and externally.”

The playbook introduces a new standard for workplace pantry strategy that's powered by technology. By leveraging automation, real-time visibility, strategic insights, and systemized service, top organizations are turning pantry programs into streamlined, high-ROI operations that scale with ease.

Workplaces will have a clear framework to align pantry performance with strategic goals like cost control, employee retention, and operational excellence. Organizations can use these strategies to deliver the same discipline, transparency, and ROI expectations you demand from every other function in their business.
