Catering businesses in Belgium

Catering companies provide meal services to a diverse range of clients. Some of these types of companies specialize in gourmet foods, while others provide international cuisine options or specific types of foods such as soups or barbecue.

Belgian catering companies supply food for business meals, different parties, and receptions. Most entrepreneurs will try to expand their range of clients and not limit themselves to a specific category, such as businesses. Catering companies in Brussels and other Belgian cities will provide services for weddings or wedding showers and different types of parties. Finding a niche is important and so is knowing the competition in a particular field.

Investors who want to start a catering business in Belgium can start by thinking of a catering menu, which may be a simple or an elaborate one, depending on the type of food the company will provide. The new Belgian company will need to have a unique business name and be incorporated as per the local rules. Hiring staff is an important step, especially when hiring the chefs who will cook the food. It is equally important to purchase the cooking and serving equipment.

The initial business start-up costs for a catering company may be lower and investors can choose to purchase additional equipment and hire extra staff as the business expands.

One of our Belgian company formation agents can give you information about the estimated initial costs related to business incorporation.
