BAKERS KITCHEN is a Catering Outfit designed to give your Occasion an Appetizing Look. We also train people and make them CEO of their own Business.
The BAKERS KITCHEN is a fast growing franchise operation. A formal catering service through training students could provide a competitive advantage while building recognition on bringing up a restaurants as time goes on will bring excellent reputation to our nation.
A simple menu consisting of the food items already offered would be sufficient to entice potential clients who are willing to be trained in other to prepare different meals and pastas like Soups, salads, pastas, and sandwiches are all anyone needs for a delicious meal.
This suggestion is based on my 6 years' experience as the manager of a small bakers kitchen in woji which will be made big now. The bakers kitchen provided many catering facilities like sandwich platters, cheese trays, and vegetable trays. Nearly every day calls came in from people wanting catering services, the bakers kitchen gave me great inspiration and much ideas in different recipes but it didn't provide me much to be able to accrued the kind of catering training centre my heart longed for.
Based on my experience of the immediate community and its needs, it is my opinion that offering catering services in bonny island would greatly increase profits and add more restaurant business in the community. There will not be any competition from any other catering training centres , Any training centre that has been running there cannot provide the services that the bakers kitchen could.
The bakers kitchen catering service will be formal and inexpensive. The primary target is the local mortgage and real estate businesses. These businesses are always looking for low cost training centres that can produce good students that will be able to prepare good pastries for potential clients during meetings.
Several salad dishes and most of the pasta entrees would make great catering dishes to offer clients. These particular items will be prepared and presented nicely and also kept well.
A catering service offered at the bakers kitchen would give a competitive advantage.. Now the bakers kitchen is about taking place at the island and we'll offer other type of catering services like lunch meat trays, cheese trays, chicken wing trays, etc. Nothing as nice as the food the bakers kitchen will offer. Professional companies want professional products to offer their clients. The bakers kitchen offers that.
Most of the bakers kitchen training food and pastries can be produced in quantity, especially the more popular entrees and salads (see proposed menu). Customers in this community will comment and express great appreciation the healthier varieties of good training that the bakers kitchen will offer.
Marketing materials would clearly state that this catering service would not provide sit-down service, nor would the bakers kitchen provide tablecloths, cloth napkins, or silverware. The bakers kitchen will teach people on how to provide prepared food that can be heated (if necessary) by the student who will want to supply to there customers. Additionally, this type of service would keep costs reasonable for students who want to take part in the training.
