Catering can be a lucrative business especially if you are passionate about food preparation. A catering business involves a lot of aspects like having the good suppliers of raw products like poultry, fish, meat,.veggies fruits and of course a good cook and assistance. Delivery van is also a consideration to keep food good when arriving at the venue.

A friend of mine is a very good cook. She has a passion in cooking. She started her catering business a few years ago. She is making very good money.
I also have a friend who is a very good cook and she sells food online and delivers to people at their doorstep and she's making good money from it

Yes that's so true. But there are also catering services that served toxic foods, leftovers and I've heard from local news many were hospitalised due to food poisoning. Catering services must be extra careful to avoid anger from diners.

Catering business is really a lucrative buisiness. But you have to have your ducks in a row to benefit here. You can have the best equipment,be in the best location, and have a bad cook and make no revenue.

Food poisoning? That is not nice and the government should make sure that they are rest people who are involved in such a bad act.

I think catering services can be a very good business. It can be very profitable if you have the right skills and resources. You need to be able to provide excellent quality food, create a good customer experience, and be organized and efficient in your operations. With the right strategies and focus, catering services can be a great business to be in.

I have a friend who is a caterer and she's making good money from catering because she's very good at it and she has a wide number of customers who patronize her

That's amazing! It's great to have a friend with such an impressive skill and success. I'm sure it was no small feat to get to where she is now. It definitely shows her dedication and hard work.

That is true. Food handling is very important in catering business. Spaghetti, noodles, food with eggs they easily spoil.

Yes there was an incident of food poisoning in our city and the verdict was closure of the said business. They're detrimental to the safety of the diners. And the owners were banned to operate anywhere in Philippines.

She is very dedicated and she always post about her job on a social media everyday to create awareness about what she does and I think she is doing it right

Maybe start based on the client's budget. That best to do is to make sure that we have contacts who can hire the business. If there is no prospect customers we will not be able start. We can start but how can we sustain the business?
I got your point there. Yes I agree, we must establish too our regular clients in order to sustain what business have we started.

In my place, they have off awaon. That's the period of rakny season when no one wants to host any ocassion. The dry season is always their time to make money.
I wish I can start this business because it's quite profitable and they never have an off-season so they get work all the time

When do you plan to start your catering business? Do planning first and think of a strategic location, manpower, and capital. How much would you need?
Post automatically merged:

People always have parties programs in schools most specifically and they don't have time to cook so they hire a good catering services.

Catering services is a very good business if you have passion of this plus capital at stake. You also need a good cook and a good driver to transport the food to the venue of the party or whatever.
