Abstract
Independent caterer Seasoned has been named as an approved caterer for Royal Museums Greenwich, which comprises Cutty Sark, National Maritime Museum, Queen’s House, Royal Observatory Greenwich, and the Peter Harrison Planetarium.

The historic collection of museum and gallery spaces can be used for a variety of events including corporate events, weddings and special occasions.

Seasoned’s green credentials include sourcing 85% of its ingredients from within a 50-mile radius. Seasoned also calculates how much carbon dioxide is created by the number of people attending the event and then pays for additional trees to be planted to offset the impact. Seasoned does not use mineral water at its events, and uses bottles made from recycled glass which are then sent for recycling.

Colin Sayers, Seasoned’s managing partner of events, said: “We understand that clients are keen to stage carbon neutral events and we can support their endeavours through our own commitment to minimising the impact our business has on the environment.

“Event catering is no longer just about the dishes served and the service on offer – clients rightly expect us to take the issue of environmental impact seriously. As a partner caterer for Royal Museums Greenwich, we’re very much looking forward to working with future guests and clients at these beautiful venues.”

This latest collaboration with Royal Museums Greenwich will see Seasoned offer its Michelin-inspired bespoke menus packed full of fresh, locally sourced, seasonal ingredients for an array of events and functions.

Claire Bastin, head of events at Royal Museums Greenwich, added: “The tender process was thorough, and competition was fierce however Seasoned impressed in all areas. Their commitment to achieving carbon-neutral events and new initiatives on sustainability were outstanding and align with our own vision and values to combat climate change.”

The partnership is the latest collaboration for Seasoned after it signed a five-year contract with Merlin Events to provide management and catering services at some of London’s most popular attractions.
