Catering is an exciting career, and a
career that has a great do-it-yourself philosophy. We like the caterers we work
with here at AAA Rents and Events.
However, before you start catering,
you’ll need a few things. In fact, nothing will stop a catering business faster
than being unprepared. But, if you know what you need, you’ll have a great
catering business and be cooking for big parties in no time.
One thing caterers definitely need is a
supplier; your business will definitely fail without a reliable supplier to buy
food from. The first place to look is retail grocery stores because you can
sometimes find great deals. However, you’re better off finding a wholesaler, as
this will keep your food cost down. And, obviously, with your food cost down
you’ll make a better profit, which is the end game. After you’ve found your
wholesaler, try to make a rapport with the key people in charge. This way
you’ll get quick service and special deals.
Next, you’ll need the proper tools of
the trade. One of these tools is either a van or SUV for transporting the food
and crew members. A van/SUV is especially important for bigger orders. Because
you need to get yourself big coolers and big warmer trays. The coolers will
keep the food fresh while you transport it, and the warmer trays keep the food
warm for customers. Without these things, you won’t last long as a caterer.
And from our point of view, there’s one
more ultra-important thing you need: familiarity with portable kitchens.
Our Los Angeles party rental inventory boasts complete kitchenware, from stoves and burners to
specialty buffet serving pieces right down to the smallest silverware piece,
and we can get you set up if you can do the cooking. If you are adaptable to
any kitchen in any setting, you may find yourself in high demand in no time.
