Corporate Caterers

WE DO CORPORATE CATERING. BUT NOT LIKE YOU THINK.

In fact, it's not like a lot of things. And that's why it's better. Sure, it's catering. But not the kind you're thinking of. Because we don't do it the way anyone else does. We're different. And that difference is what makes our franchise concept unique.

Corporate Caterers offers you multiple advantages over other concepts

Our Founders Jim Gass & Dennis McGinley confess to having been exhausted by the daily pressures of trying to run busy restaurants and catering operations. The did it for over 15 years. They knew there had to be a better way. Working together, they hatched the plan for a great concept.

The house rules they established for Corporate Caterers were straightforward: 

  • Cater breakfast and lunch
  • Operate 5 days a week (weekends off)
  • Service business and corporate clients only (no private parties, no evenings)
  • Have a well-trained staff, schooled in the art of superior food, presentation, and service

Corporate Caterers Franchise Concept

We started 20 years ago with a simple purpose: To deliver delicious, reliable office catering.

Today, that appetizer has grown into a full entrée of 30+ nationwide franchise operations helping people eat well at work. And we're still innovating with new, fresh recipes in all of our locations.

Having you join us would be like getting dessert.

It's Your Choice

We are a specialized catering business. We don't usually promote ourselves in the general public media because we're a B2B (business to business) model. However, in the business world, we want you to make a strong impact in your local market. We have the tools to help you promote your services to targeted clientele, from direct mail to referral programs, from personal presentations to catered functions. We will help you design a customized marketing and promotions campaign for your area before you begin, and help you implement and monitor your programs as you progress in your own Corporate Caterers franchise.

“Owning a Corporate Caterers had allowed me freedom to run and grow my own business with the confidence that I had a national brand behind me. I enjoy the relationships that I have established with my customers and staff over the last 10 years. It has been great to see the difference that Corporate Caterers makes in everyone’s lives. We have seen a member of our staff grow from being a dishwasher to one of our lead cooks, from being a driver to our floor manager and we have seen several of our long term team members buy their first homes. All things that give us great pride.”
