Turn Your Idea into an Appetising Business Venture with our Catering Courses

Love food much? Love it enough to make a career out of it? If you’re someone passionate about experimenting with different flavours, techniques, and ingredients, or you’ve simply caught the foodie bug and want to sharpen your culinary skills, then you should get into the catering industry.

While there are many industries that are struggling to thrive and stay alive, new growth in the culinary industry is just getting started. From gourmet chocolates, weddings & birthday cakes, health foods, and food trucks to catering weddings and corporate events – catering is one of the fastest-growing industries in South Africa today.

Yes, people love food and even though more people are cooking at home to save money, there are still many busy executives, students and busy families that have no problem eating out or ordering in. The reality is that as long as people have the need to eat, throw parties, get married, and explore new flavours, catering will always be in high demand.

Although money and passion are both vital to running any successful business, the key ingredients to running a successful catering business are training and skill. A lucrative and self-fulfilling industry where you don’t need a university degree to get started, catering can be an extremely profitable business for anyone who has a flair for food and the right catering course behind them.

Yes, training is more than critical in this industry. Not only does it take a combination of hard work and carefully honed skills to succeed – but you need sound business savvy with inspired culinary vision.

The truth is that if you want to be the best, you have to study with the best, and that can only be found with Chefs Training & Innovation Academy.
