Catering and Foodservice
Being responsible for a large foodservice company with multiple sites, you need to wear different hats such as meat specialist, nutritionist, crisis manager, complaint handler, internal auditor, health and safety advisor, microbiologist, legal expert, trainer and many more.
When your company grows or diversifies its services or brands, your department might not necessarily grow at the same rate which creates additional pressure and demands.
We can help you meet these demands as well as solve daily challenges, such as how to:
- Manage food safety and implement a consistent approach across multiple sites
- Keep up with training requirements in a fast-paced environment where kitchen staff changes frequently
- Deal with increasingly higher legal requirements for allergens, labelling, food safety and traceability
- Manage complaints and foodborne illnesses with limited resources
- Make sure your suppliers are trustworthy and meet your food quality standards
