Score Big: Don’t Fumble Your Catering Order

Let's face it - the big game isn't just about football. It's about wings, dips, sliders, and all the food that brings people together. For caterers and foodservice operators, it can help you score big revenue! But with great opportunity comes great responsibility, and no one wants to fumble an order when the stakes are this high.

The Pre-Game Packaging Plan

Every player needs to know their position, and every piece of equipment needs to be game-ready. Start by auditing your packaging supplies. You'll need sturdy compartmented containers for sides, party platters for those veggies and apps, and secure lids that won't let food spill during transit.

The Offensive Strategy

Smart packaging choices make all the difference here. Those containers with built-in compartments? They're not just convenient - they're your secret weapon for preventing cross-contamination and keeping food safe and secure.

Defense Wins Championships

Here's where attention to detail becomes crucial. Create a quality control checkpoint system:

First Down: Order verification
Second Down: Packaging selection
Third Down: Food temperature check
Fourth Down: Final presentation review

Each order should go through all four downs before heading out the door.  Don't forget to include reheating instructions where necessary.

The Special Teams

Your delivery team is your special teams unit - they make or break the final play. Equip them with:

• Extra serving utensils (because someone always forgets them)
• A checklist for each delivery
• Clear setup instructions for drop-off orders

The Victory Formation

Success in big-game catering comes down to preparation and execution. Your food might be fantastic, but the right packaging ensures it arrives looking and tasting just as good as when it left your kitchen.

Remember, every container, every lid, every platter is part of your team's uniform. Choose quality packaging that reflects your brand and maintains food integrity. After all, you're not just delivering food - you're delivering an experience that people will remember long after the final whistle blows.

Now get out there and win big!
