What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?

Ideally to provide a very comprehensive quote we would need to know the following details: date and desired serving time, venue address and type of venue (private land or public land), type of event, number of guests, dietary requirements, area size for our gazebo set up.

What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Always check the type of product the suppliers are advertising. We advertise traditional wood fire Neapolitan pizzas as we strictly adhere to the rules to make a real sourdough Traditional Neapolitan pizza - I would ask the customer to spend some time and check the supplier website for full info about the company, the type of services and the product. Social media and reviews are useful too to get an idea about the feedback from previous clients.

Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.

We decided to start our mobile catering company because we wanted to combine a few things we really love doing. Stay outdoors, spend time with people and cook quality food. We decided to focus on pizza as being Italians we grow up with the pizza culture as happy food which helps people to gather together.
We think that a very high-quality sourdough pizza product could fit in perfectly with the demand for buffet food. If we invite a friend of a member of our family for dinner we make sure to serve them the best food. This is the same mentality we adopt when cooking for 100 + guests
Pizza, homemade real fresh tomato sauce was something we always made with our mothers and grandmothers and are part of our DNA. Working in a pizzeria helped us to enhance our skills too. On top of that we have 15+ years experience within the Scottish travel/hospitality industry and plenty knowledge about the players of this sector.
We wanted to create a simple but sophisticated product, which could help our partners to provide an alternative catering offering for private events, small and large.
We love to make people happy and when we see that guests are enjoying our pizzas and they reward us with compliments, that is simply the best we could ask!

Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?

We are very happy with Add to Event app. It is a very useful source of direct business and our conversion rate is not bad at all!
We tend to be really clear and comprehensive with our communications about our offering since the first approach with the client, understand their needs and explaining what we can offer to make their event successful!
We had several bookings and it is difficult to pick one rather than another. The most important thing for us is that all the events we had so far were great experiences, we met very friendly people and we went beyond the client's expectations. We received a lot of positive feedback which made us so happy as these reviews are essentially the reasons why we invest time and effort to continue to strive to deliver high-level services and products. Yes, we will certainly recommend Add to Event to any business that is interested in enhancing their presence within the hospitality sector.
