There is this wrong notion that one professional caterer is the same as the other in the breed, which has spoilt many corporate events. Each caterer is different.

Some have a different take; they feel that standards for corporate catering are definitely higher, because career prestige could be significant. Both these myths are wrong, it can be accepted for the purpose of argument.

3. Complete Planning is Caterer’s Responsibility

In fact, the caterer should be able to take care of the details of the programme and execute it properly. However, if the caterer fails to understand about the very theme of event it would be flip flop show. To avoid any miscommunications on the day of the programme, somebody from the staff in the know of the event should coordinate with the caterer. Thus, it is important to carefully plan together with your caterer from the beginning of the proposal and discuss all the details. Once the menu is set with all the relevant information conveyed and understood, you can now completely rely on your caterer to take over the control. Now you can expect a grand show!
