Contract Catering
Do you want to offer your client cutting edge nutrition and catering services that could make your company a must have?
Contract caterers are often responsible for over 65% of a workforces’ food intake, so there is a responsibility to ensure healthy options are available throughout its food offer. Furthermore, with the health food options now available on the high street it is vital that your company has a good range of healthy eating products available to prevent your customers eating elsewhere, which could seriously affect sales.
I can offer the following important nutritional services, helping to make menus and dishes healthier and to encourage your customers to eat more healthily and to keep you ahead of the high street.
Menu planning – Such as ensuring healthy options and allergens are paramount, vegan and vegetarian diners are provided for and balance is met.
Recipe development – Working alongside your chefs to create bespoke, nutrient dense, vibrant and delicious dishes and healthy eating ranges or products, such as 'impulse snacks' and 'cakes with benefits' .
Recipe analysis – Ensuring each recipe meets high nutritional standards, or to meet traffic light labelling laws, or providing dishes with lower levels of salt, sugars or saturated fats.

This service could also provide specific nutritional information for each dish that you serve to your clients and advice on menu coding, giving your clients the option of having the healthiest food in town!
Advice on current legislation – Such as regulations on food labelling and allergens.
Healthy meeting room food – I can provide suggestions as to which foods should be offered in meeting rooms (working lunches / snacks) to increase productivity, mood and energy.
Training or workshops for your staff – I can provide training workshops for your chefs, focusing on customer and staff health and well-being. Your staff’s absenteeism could decrease and productivity could also increase as result.
Health & wellbeing (health promotion days) – this covers important and popular office health topics, such as Food and Mood, Stress Management or Balancing Blood Sugar levels. I can create fact sheets in an easy to read format and provide health and wellbeing talks and health promotion days to clients. Working with a designer I can also create infographic health sheets like those seen on this page.
