What's included

Sizing Your Order to Guest Count

Catering orders are sized to guest count rather than a standard wholesale case, spanning beef, chicken, pork and seafood depending on the event menu. Tell us your guest count and menu and we’ll help confirm quantities per category before you order. Lead time matters more for catering than for a standing restaurant account, since event orders are often larger than a typical delivery and need to be confirmed against availability ahead of the event date, especially for larger guest counts. Delivery or pickup timing is confirmed against your event start time rather than a standard route day, so product arrives with enough time for prep rather than mid-event, whether that event is a one-time booking or a recurring catering contract. Caterers running recurring event bookings can set up a standing account rather than requesting a new quote for every event, which speeds up ordering once a typical guest-count range and menu pattern is established.

Who orders this

Event Caterers, One-Time Hosts and In-House Venues

Event caterers with a recurring booking calendar, one-time event hosts, and venues running their own in-house catering program are our typical catering accounts, ranging from a single event order to a standing seasonal schedule. Minimum order size for catering scales with guest count rather than being a fixed number, since a small private event and a large banquet represent very different volumes at a similar per-guest structure. Ask when you request your quote and we’ll confirm what fits your event. Event orders are easiest to plan when we know your guest count, menu, and event date as early as possible, since larger events may need product set aside ahead of your event day rather than pulled from standard weekly stock. A rough guest-count estimate is enough to start the conversation; we can refine the exact quantities as your event date gets closer and your final headcount firms up.
