What is a Business Enterprise Day?
Using the Funky Lunch concept as a starting point, students will design and create their own sandwich product that could be sold in a shop. This hands on engaging day takes your budding entrepreneurs through the steps required to create a saleable product, including market research, finances, concept and finally creation of their sandwich design along with packaging and much more.It's more than just fun with food...
This day long workshop is aimed at pupils in Key Stage 3 & 4 and even up to sixth form. Challenging a number of key skills, this activity requires teamwork as well as individual performances to ensure every aspect of each task is delivered.
Funky Lunch Enterprise Workshops are designed to get students thinking outside the 'lunch' box and creating an idea that would sell on a supermarket shelf. Working out costs and profit margins will help them to understand how financially successful their product would be in the real world.

The Enterprise Workshop
Plan
Working in teams, the first task your students must embrace is to work out their concept. Who will buy the sandwich?, how much will it cost to make?, how much profit will be made? These questions and more must be answered before moving on.
Prepare
Probably the most enjoyable section of the day, where all their ideas start to come together. Using the ingredients they have selected, students must create their sandwich idea and produce packaging and other material that adds value to their product.
Pitch
To finish the day, each team must make a small presentation of their idea, the reasons behind it and how they went about producing the final project.Do your students have what it takes?
