Operational Catering Reviews
We use benchmarking and our comprehensive catering experience to assess whether your services offer value for money. Where we find things that need to be sorted out, we tell you clearly what we think you should do to improve things.
We can help you negotiate with a contractor, produce a specification to form the basis of a re-tender process for a new catering contract or provide an improvement plan to get you back on track.
We also offer on-going mentoring and support to catering managers as well as one-off project based reviews. This is particularly useful in new restaurant and catering services where that little extra support means the difference between a launch and a great launch.

Here's what a previous client had to say -
"I was evaluating a potential restaurant business but lacked the grass roots operational experience to assess the viability of my plans. Grosvenor Associates worked through them with me and pointed out some critical flaws, helping me to see that this was not the business for me. That intervention saved me thousands." Entrepreneur, Isle of Wight
