How Corporate Catering in Vancouver Works

Corporate catering is arranged by sharing the event requirements, choosing the service format and approving the final production plan.

  1. 1

    Tell Us About Your Event

    Tell us the date, complete Vancouver venue address, event type, expected attendance and required serving times. Include whether the booking is for a boardroom meeting, conference, wedding, private event, production crew or outdoor gathering.

  2. 2

    Review the Venue Requirements

    Share the venue access, delivery conditions, available preparation space and event timetable. We will use the brief to identify the required menu periods, equipment, staffing and venue coordination.

  3. 3

    Choose the Menu and Service Format

    Choose plated dining, buffet service, boxed meals, breakfast catering, food stations or drop-off delivery. Share vegan, halal, gluten-free and allergen requirements before the menu is approved.

  4. 4

    Plan Staffing and Event Logistics

    Confirm the required service team, equipment and beverage support. Staffed events can use a 1:20 ratio for plated dining or a 1:35 ratio for buffet service, depending on the venue and event requirements.

  5. 5

    Confirm the Production Plan

    Approve the menu, guest count, venue access, staffing, equipment, beverages and final schedule. Book corporate catering 2 to 4 weeks ahead and weddings or large events 3 to 6 months ahead to allow for venue, staffing and supplier coordination.
