My vast experience of jobs include working in catering and retail outlets. With my present company Cater For my insight into catering proves to be invaluable when supplyingcatering equipment to businesses. Having worked at the sharp end in these business arenas has given me empathy with the challenges faced. I feel that by employing the lessons learnt during my years within retail shops or catering venues I can offer relevant articles pertaining to these areas of business.
My current company offers catering equipment for a wide range of uses online at http://www.caterfor.co.uk/. The company has also been sourcing EPoS and cash registers for both hospitality and retail industries during the last 10 years. It always gives us a buzz to be able to give advice and assistance to business owners.
A love of both food, catering and writing enables me to explore areas that may also interest other people with an interest in cuisine, either professionally or as an enthusiastic amateur.
Personally I believe in writing for enjoyment and satisfaction. If I can read or write about something that enthuses me or motivates me I couldn't be happier. Hopefully readers will enjoy my articles, too.
