Author: Tripleseat September 11, 2020 Duration: 24:48

The past six months have forced restaurants to pivot their standard models in order to reach customers in new ways. This holiday season may be no different, and it is time for restaurants to consider how off-site catering can be a key revenue stream during the usually busy holiday events season. On this episode, Kate and Rachel discuss the importance of restaurants offering off-site catering service this holiday season, ideas for how to put together creative packages, and how Tripleseat can help manage all catering needs. Customers are still going to want to celebrate the holiday season with family and friends, so if they cannot do that physically at your restaurant, then make sure you can bring your restaurant to their small gathering in the form of off-site catering!
