Abstract
The Fine Food Company and Creativevents have won a three year contract, worth an estimated combined turnover of £2 million, to boost all the public catering at the Hampton Court Flower Show in July.
The partnership was formed in 2010 after winning a three year public catering contract for the RHS Tatton Park Flower Show in Cheshire. This year both companies will come together again to manage the Premium Food Courts, as well as all retail champagne & pimms and coffee bars for over 150,000 visitors at Hampton Court Flower Show.
Creativevents managing director Adrian Willson said: "Both companies are innovators at the premium end of the event catering market. We have worked in partnership over a number of years to develop stylish, high quality, high volume, fresh food and drink concepts at some of the UK's most prestigious events. We have a mutual passion for food provenance and sourcing the best local ingredients."
Caroline Hills, head of shows operations, added: "I am very excited by the concepts that Creativevents and The Fine Food Company are introducing at Hampton Court. They did a superb job for the RHS at Tatton Park in 2010 and we look forward to working with them at both events in 2011."
Jane Cookson, RHS head of catering, said: "The RHS are delighted to be working with Creative Events and The Fine Food Company. We know that they will deliver high quality, freshly prepared and responsibly sourced catering to the visitors of RHS Shows."
The Hampton Court Flower Show is open from 5 – 10 July 2011.
