If you think of a birthday, a wedding, a party, a sleepover or a simple movie night, what do they all have in common? Food! One of the most crucial & common components of any event is the food offered at it.

1. Corporate Catering

Here, the caterer serves the company’s employees when they gather at a place for company-related business. Most businesses regularly host company-wide meetings where employees can discuss important issues. Since there are typically not a great number of people present during company meetings, the caterer can have people serve the guests their preferred meals and beverages.

2. Wedding Catering

Wedding caterers are hired not only for the wedding and reception but also for other wedding-related events such as the rehearsal dinners, music nights (sangeet), and so on. Weddings are among the most important occasions in people’s lives. As a result, caterers pay special attention to the entire operation so that the couples can enjoy their special day without worrying about the arrangements.

3. Social Event

Social events include retirement, birthdays, babies, and bridal showers. Such events, in particular, necessitate a smaller scale and more customised food service. At such events, dietary preferences should be taken care of by the caterers so that food allergy flare-ups can be avoided.

4. Concession Catering

This category includes public events, significant sporting occasions, and huge music concerts. There is probably food available wherever there are huge gatherings of people. In such circumstances, simply offer the most well-liked items as it is challenging to satisfy everyone’s unique food preferences. In place of full-course dining options, for example, it makes sense to have well-known quick food joints.
