BM Caterers

A HUGE thank you to some of our amazing suppliers that have contributed in various ways to our Community🎄Christmas Hamper. This year, we're proud to bring some festive cheer to 50 families in South London by providing them with everything they need for a special Christmas dinner—turkey, veg, mince pies, chocolates, and more! So many of our team members have come together, giving their time and energy to make this happen with no corners cut. Every single food item has been generously donated, ensuring the hampers are filled with the very best. Sunil said: ”After 10 years of doing projects like this, I couldn’t be prouder of what we do as a company and how we embrace the gift of food to make a difference.” 💜💚 Here’s to a Christmas filled with kindness and community ✨ Belazu | B Corp™ County Supplies, BPM Meats, Bidfood UK Vegetarian Express, Essential Cuisine

👏 A Big Thank You to Paul Tate and Daryll Young! 👏 We’re thrilled to share some amazing feedback from Barnhill Community High School following a demo class delivered by Paul and Daryll for their Year 11 hospitality and catering students. The session was nothing short of a masterpiece cook-off, offering hands-on demonstrations in pastry making, mayonnaise, and pasta making. Not only did the students learn crucial techniques, but they also gained invaluable hints and tips that have boosted their confidence as they prepare for their upcoming exams. Here’s what the school had to say: "The students were well engaged by both chefs, who gave them the opportunity to model crucial steps... Their kindness, generosity and helpful hints are greatly appreciated." Thank you, Paul and Daryll, for inspiring the next generation of chefs and sharing your expertise so generously. Your passion and commitment continue to make a meaningful impact. #CulinaryEducation #InspiringTheFuture #ChefsInAction #HospitalityAndCatering #BarnhillCommunityHigh
