3.3 Catering service
Australians love entertaining. As a caterer you can take advantage of this by offering everything from breakfast for two, intimate gourmet dinners for 20 or traditional wedding buffets for 200.
Caterers have always been and will continue to be in demand for functions like weddings, receptions, graduations, anniversaries, christenings, birthday parties, anniversaries and so on.
Increasingly, businesses are also turning to catering services to arrange food and beverages at home or at their premises for luncheons, staff parties and receptions where clients or business associates are entertained.
Unlike most other food businesses, catering can be started with a small investment. Emphasis is on service and much of this service is performed on the client's premises. There is no rent involved, no "slow" nights, no hostile clients waiting impatiently for a table by the window.
Industrial, factory or warehouse areas are all good areas to set up your business. All you need is sufficient space to establish your store room and a small commercial kitchen - ideally between 70 and 150 square metres. Your clients will never see your office because you will be meeting them in their homes or places of business to plan their functions.
When starting your business you will need to pay careful attention to your pricing structure. It is essential to make enough money to make sure your business is successful. Our guide explains how to assess your business operations, how much you should charge for your services and how to make sure you are charging the right amount to cover your operating costs as well as generate a profit.
All this and much more is outlined in this guide. It investigates market potential, what to consider when choosing business premises and location, what equipment you will need, what to consider when it comes to costs and stock, how to effectively operate your business and the tax and legal issues you should be aware of.
Remember, not only is starting a business a major life-changing decision, it is also a major financial investment. As a result, you will need to make sure you are fully aware of the commitment you are about to make and what is involved.
This guide will help you to arm yourself with the appropriate information. Information that is accurate, up-to-date and applicable to your individual circumstances and show you how you can earn a decent living helping others have a great time.
Start planning early if you're going to prepare the food yourself. Be sure to test out new recipes ahead of time as you don't want to experiment on your guests!
Whether you're serving a six-course dinner or just entrees, try to plan lots of dishes that can be prepared ahead of time and then just pulled from the refrigerator, or heated and served. You don't want to spend the entire evening in the kitchen.
Whatever you prepare, be sure to have lots of it and keep platters refreshed so the food always looks abundant and appetizing, even to guests who arrive halfway through the party.
A fun dish making a comeback is the FONDUE! The 70's trend proved to be ideal for self-serve food that caters to just about everyone. If you don't have a fondue (and there isn't many that haven't got one in the cupboard) knick down to the local Op Shop and pick one up for a bargain that will entertain your guests and prove to be a valuable and entertaining talking point bringing back a flood of memories.
If all this seems like too much work then consider hiring a caterer. Australian Catering companies offer a wide range of food and services for any occasion.
If your guests are expected to bring their own drinks, let them know in the invitation. Don't forget the ice, you can never have too much ice at a party. Don't forget to add fresh fruit to your shopping list. Also consider making a punch or two; one alcoholic and one without.
