This past month Target Distribution in Minneapolis had their employee holiday event and Lettuce Cater had the honor of catering their meal. We provided a buffet style lunch from our corporate catering menu with choices for everyone. Our chefs set up the food and our staff stayed to ensure the dishes never ran empty. Employees were able to fill their plates with a hearty meal and share some special time together. We knew the event was a success when one woman who has been working there for 41 years even said our food this year was the best she ever had at the holiday lunch! What a compliment!

Work events, even the most basic, are a great way to improve employee morale and really show your employees that you care during the holiday season. Whether you are cookie decorating, doing a white elephant exchange, or going on an outing, one of the most important parts of any holiday celebration is the food. Sometimes companies will organize a pot-luck where everyone brings in a dish to share. The thing about pot-lucks is you never know what you’ll end up with…could be mystery dishes – or worse case scenario, it could be nothing. But you can’t really blame people, it’s the holiday season and everyone is busy trying to get their shopping done and their homes ready for the family and in-laws to come over. This time of year no one has time to shop for ingredients, prepare a dish, and transport it to work- or the money for that matter. So let this be a lesson! Treat your employees and make your next event as painless as possible for them and encourage more participation by getting the meal catered in.

Lettuce Cater makes figuring out the food for your next event easy and delicious- with our corporate catered meals. We also do business lunch boxes and other events. If you’re in charge of planning your holiday work party, give Lettuce Cater a call.  You can choose from a variety of meals to treat and delight your employees. They will thank you!
