Why Catersource?

Caterers buy volume because they serve volume guests — hundreds and thousands of

guests per event.

In fact, a caterer often serves more guests at a single event than

a restaurant serves in an entire week.

Unlike other foodservice segments, there is stability in the

catering sector. Important life events, inluding weddings and

anniversaries, are constant, a fact that keeps the catering industry

stable.

This is not your ordinary textbook, cookie-cutter classroom setting at a culinary training program but a real experience of shared learning. The annual conference presented by Catersource and the International Caterers Association is an opportunity to:

� Meet other professionals currently working in catering kitchens and gain first-hand knowledge, relate to the day-to-day business of catering, share truly original ideas, discuss ground-up trends and learn what inspires their growing imaginations.

� Listen to high-energy, enthusiastic presenters willing to share and tell all about their catering experiences in a fun and relaxed environment.

� Be up close to the demonstrations so you don’t miss a thing; intimate enough to ask the chef presenter questions.

� Taste flavor profiles and textures and observe the food styling and presentations while chefs demonstrate the preparation from the stage.

The Art of Catering Food

The Art of Catering Food [AOCF] is a three-day culinary-focused event held each year in the late

summer (July/August), This is where food industry professionals

unite to learn from world-class catering chefs in an unique and

intimate setting.
