Synopsis: Catering is becoming one of the fastest-growing businesses in the booming food industry. More corporate companies are realising the importance of offering good food and service to guests and employees. Catering for those who entertain at home is a lucrative market too - thanks to the more disposable income of individuals who can afford a caterer for their events.

Contents: 1. Running your own catering business; 2. Getting into the catering business; 3. Finding and equipping your business premises; 4. Health and safety; 5. Business finances; 6.Marketing your business; 7. Looking after your customers; 8. Food and drink; 9. Designing menus; 10. Food suppliers; 11. Specialist suppliers; 12.
