Scope

• Product technology. The two main techniques through which meals are prepared are:
• traditional canteen: meals are prepared shortly prior to consumption and served on the premises. In some cases, a central kitchen cooks the food which is then distributed to locations within the local area. This kind of setup involves an agreement with the owners of the structures in question for the periodical payment of royalties;
• pre-cooked: meals are prepared at a central kitchen and then delivered to the places they are consumed in individual or multi-portion containers. This form of catering allows service to be provided to various peripheral locations in which it would not be practical to install a traditional kitchen due to the limited number of diners.
• Function: the fundamental purpose of the catering sector is to provide food for out-of-home consumption.
• Client groups: in the public catering sector demand comes from various prevailing client types, operating in both the public and private sectors. The following key markets have been identified: companies, schools, health institutions, military institutions and others. In commercial catering chains adult consumers frequent commercial food outlets, especially during their lunch hours (referring to general workers), while family consumers are attracted by the more modern layout (especially in buffet-style free-flow restaurants) and the low cost. Fast food outlets mostly target a younger audience.
