At Corporate Caterers the “house rules” are:
- Only breakfast and lunch catering – Monday through Friday
Weekends off
Only business and corporate clientele
Off premise catering (so no expensive dining room space to furnish or maintain)
Low start up costs and limited overhead
The Big Idea. In 1996, Corporate Caterers set out to prove that a successful catering business model could be developed, keeping the above “house
rules” in mind. The idea was to develop a business model which would allow a food delivery business owner to generate solid income while
maintaining a reasonable working schedule and a support happy home lives.

90% of franchised businesses will still be in business. And according to the US Small Business Administration (SBA), franchises have the lowest
default ratio (about 2%) of all types of SBA guaranteed small business loans.”
