Ahhh love the drug reps. When they order from us they donāt want us to ākeep it warmā they just want bulk foodā¦delivered.
All we did was go to the dollar store and buy some aluminum containers with lids and a pack of plates. We keep 20 containers on hand so when they call we are ready. I usually buy servers from dollar store too or walmart has a bag of utensils for about 3 bucks. Cheap enough to give away.
We do things like salads, pans of pasta and bread. We also take our 12" sub and cut into thirds. They can get pans of wings, cheese breadsticks etc.
During the summer they ask for things like veggie trays and fruit traysā¦I just go to walmart and buy what I need. Still able to make food cost and product is fresh.
Keep it simple.
Great way to increase business without a whole lot of work.
As for real cateringā¦used to do it alot. Got too big for our britches and couldnāt cater a party of 200 on a Friday night cuz our kitchen isnāt big to handle biz and catering. Most catering job wonāt have a kitchen. Alot of hassle and just wasnāt worth itā¦for me.
