When people consider catering, they always think about large events. But, caterers are commonly used for smaller events across the nation. Sometimes just dropping by some food, other times staying at the event. So, how can you successfully cater for a small event?

When catering for a small event you need to take into consideration the party numbers. You should always provide more food than what you would expect for a small party as you never know how much people will eat.

You should also consider the portion sizes that you send to a small event. We find it is best to provide smaller, bitesize pieces for the guests to eat. These are more practical than larger items. Especially if there is not much room to display the items.

Finally, you will need to consider the space you have. A lot of caterers will look at displays for their food. With smaller events, you may need to go with something more basic due to the lack of space.
