The FLx Catering Solution is a completely flexible offer to help organisations wanting to provide catering as part of their return to work programme but concerned about signing up to long-term contracts and fixed service levels at such an uncertain time.
As well as flexible, it’s innovative, individual and transparent – as you’d expect from the team at Talkington Bates.
Our new concept offers companies a pick'n'mix of requirements to fit their individual needs:
· Quarterly or biannual contracts
· A three, four or five day-a-week service offering with variable service levels to accommodate changing headcounts
· Fixed overhead operating costs
· Reduced service or annual closures in the summer and Christmas breaks
· Flexible payment terms
