Risk, Reward & Revenue: Restaurant Catering Workshop

Monday, May 19, 1:00 – 5:00 pm

Are you leaving money on the table? Catering is a real opportunity to enhance revenue and supplement your current restaurant offerings – but it’s more complicated than you may expect.

Do it right and your catering can be stylish and sophisticated. It can be done without your marketing appearing desperate. The addition of off-premise catering can absolutely complement your brand and take it to new financial heights.

In this deep dive workshop into the logistics of catered events, you will hear from both restaurant and high-end catering operations on best practices, how to prevent roadblocks, and how best to scale—or start—a catering operation inside your organization. Learn from those who have found tremendous success in an industry that serves multiple guests quickly and efficiently under severe time constraints, but leaves them with memories that will last a lifetime.

Intended Audience:
This workshop is open to foodservice operators only.
