New online catering platform is foodie heaven

New online catering platform is a hit with corporates, but you can use it too.

We’ve got a hot tip for savvy Cityscapers: new online catering platform Caterway is designed for corporates looking to simplify their catering administration, but it’s also a great way for anyone planning a birthday or event to see a wide range of caterers in one place.

If you’ve ever planned food for a big party or organised a caterer for a wedding, you’ll remember the stress of back-and-forth emails organising menus, delivery times and invoices. Caterway does it a different way, and it makes a lot of sense. You just choose what you want on a caterer’s page, choose pick up or a delivery time, and pay online. It’s easier for you, and easier for our wonderful local catering businesses.

It’s a tummy-rumbling website to browse, listing caterers that cover every kind of cuisine you could possibly want, along with helpful photos, per person prices and example menus. You can search by occasion and type of cuisine, but also by dietary requirements, and the caterers are tagged into super-helpful categories, so you browse all the healthy options, all the finger food options, or all the caterers that can provide service staff (sweet-toothed readers beware - there’s also a dessert category). It’s great if you’ve left it to the last minute too – most of the caterers only need 24 or 48 hours’ notice, and some will do it with just two hours.

The Caterway team will also help you pick a caterer – if you tell them about your event, preferences and dietary requirements, they hand-pick the caterers they think would suit you best and formulate a few different quotes for you to choose from. When you make your purchase, all of your spend goes to the local catering business you’re buying from, Caterway doesn’t add any fees on top of your order. Right now, all the listed businesses are local to Christchurch, so it’s an awesome way to back the crafty food magicians that keep our city satisfied.
