Corporate and Outside Catering Company

Ref.AC167
Location Hampshire
Asking Price £ 260,000

Established for over twenty five by the current Owner and operating for the last ten years from its current site, a 300 square metre catering unit ideally located to service the adjacent executive jet airport, this business provides its customers with top quality catering at venues of their choice. Operating predominantly in the commercial sector – corporate functions represent approximately 80% of total turnover, this business has a wide range of sample menus for a customer to choose from – but is equally adept at designing a menu specifically to match the occasion. From a birthday celebration, wedding, funeral, an intimate dinner party or a party for 500 – right through to Boardroom lunches, Executive Box lunches or catering for a very exclusive Corporate Hospitality event, this business covers them all. And each with their customers’ expectations not only met but inevitably exceeded.
Located on a small business park, this business operates in a broad corridor encompassing Hampshire, Berkshire, Surrey, Middlesex and West Sussex. Its leased premises, ideally located for easy access to all parts of its catchment area via very strong motorway links were ‘equipped for purpose’ when the business relocated providing the business with the very best catering facilities.
Always utilizing fresh ingredients, freshly cooked as much as possible, this business commands a wide ranging repertoire – from sandwich platters, hot and cold finger buffets and ‘bowl’ food right through to multi course menus requiring silver service, utilizing all of the skills of its highly talented and very experienced staff to present the finest in contemporary cuisine. All food is served fresh and at its very best wherever it is required.
The cornerstone to the success of this business is its unparalleled attention to detail and the principle of tailoring an event to exactly what the Client needs, that will impress guests, customers, staff and friends – all presented with a friendly attitude which together with the high quality catering and a first class standard of service allows its Clients to relax knowing that every eventuality will be catered for. This business listens carefully, creating the perfect atmosphere - relaxed, formal or themed - and delivers delicious food. Its fresh, contemporary cuisine is matched with exceptional service, making every event it attends a great success, whether it’s simply delivering platters of delicious finger food or providing a brigade of professional waiters.

Expansion Potential
As a well established business within the Southern Home Counties, there is an excellent opportunity to build on the name and reputation this business has established and to develop the existing business levels and customer base of this company. With a strong demand for this business's products and services, a new owner contributing fresh ideas, enthusiasm and additional human resources will have every advantage of building on an excellent platform.
Having been run by the same Owner for the past twenty five years, this company has built an excellent trade based largely on its existing, albeit extensive, customer base and is now ready to be taken to the next level.
