The company, which focuses solely on the business and industry sector, will provide contract options ranging from traditional fixed-term agreements, to new ‘pay as you go’ models.
Services will range from full in-house workplace restaurants, hospitality and directors dining, to regular or ad-hoc breakfast and lunch deliveries prepared off-site at the company’s new kitchens on the edge of the City.
Sam Hurst, founder of Grazing Food, said: “The traditional contract catering landscape is changing dramatically. We've seen dilution of boundaries between high street and workplace catering, with the former increasingly offering direct to office services.
“Whilst our new business will offer traditional contracted services, including investment where required, we will also offer quality food on a daily rolling basis. No contracts or long-term commitments are required.”
Hurst currently operates an event catering and food delivery company to clients across London and the South East. The new purpose-built kitchens cost around £400,000 to construct.
He added: “We appreciate that space is at a premium in the City and there are many businesses looking to maximise every square foot possible, that’s why our offsite kitchen gives them that additional flexibility.
“The B&I market is consolidating daily and we feel we can offer something a little bit different to the market. We have the infrastructure to challenge some of these players and are excited to see what the future holds."
