Yohann Zinier • May 01, 2022

Whether you want corporate catering for a work lunch, conference, or cocktail party, there are numerous things you want to consider. We’ve created this easy guide for you to ensure nothing gets missed.


Tips for Ordering Corporate Catering

Before ordering corporate catering, here are some things you need to consider:

  • Size of your gathering - whether it's a work lunch for 10 or a corporate event for 100, the size of your group helps us decide the perfect amount of food for you.
  • Who will be attending - knowing who will be attending the event or meeting is important and allows us to know about any allergies or dietary restrictions in advance.
  • Your budget

Now that you've decided these things, the following are four stages to requesting corporate catering to guarantee your office lunch or corporate event is flawless.

Set a Schedule

  • Incorporate brief breaks over the day to permit your participants to refuel. This will guarantee they remain on track and valuable.
  • Try not to release your visitors hungry! Guarantee that lunch will be incorporated into the day.
  • Provide coffee, juice, water, and healthy snacks to keep your guests hydrated and focused.

Pick the Perfect Food for your Event

To make sure your meeting or corporate event is a success:

  • Pick food items that are not difficult to eat.
  • Don’t forget to cater to special diets and allergies. Provide plenty of gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian options.
  • Have the gluten-free and vegetarian options plated separately and make sure to label them.
  • Opt for lighter choices on your menu to avoid guests feeling overly full.

Preparation and Clean Up

  • Food should be set up and prepared before the break begins.   
  • Consider having lunch or breakfast outside the meeting room. This will simplify the setup without disturbing the meeting.
