Seasoned wins Royal Museums Greenwich contract

The company pointed to its green credentials as a key factor in the deal, after it said its “executive team has been working towards the venues becoming carbon neutral and one area the group examined carefully was its supply chain”

Independent caterer Seasoned has been named as an approved caterer for Royal Museums Greenwich on a three-year contract.

The company pointed to its green credentials as a key factor in the deal, after it said its “executive team has been working towards the venues becoming carbon neutral and one area the group examined carefully was its supply chain”.

Seasoned’s green credentials include sourcing 85% of its ingredients from within a 50-mile radius.

Royal Museums Greenwich, which is located within the UNESCO World Heritage site of Maritime Greenwich, comprises Cutty Sark, National Maritime Museum, Queen’s House, Royal Observatory Greenwich, and the Peter Harrison Planetarium.

The partnership is the latest collaboration for Seasoned after it signed a five-year contract with Merlin Events to provide management and catering services at some of London’s most popular attractions.

Colin Sayers, Seasoned’s managing partner, events, said: “We understand that clients are keen to stage carbon neutral events and we can support their endeavours through our own commitment to minimising the impact our business has on the environment.

“Event catering is no longer just about the dishes served and the service on offer – clients rightly expect us to take the issue of environmental impact seriously.”

He added: “Royal Museums Greenwich is an amazing portfolio of properties. These distinctive venues are infused with history and provide fabulous spaces to host truly memorable events. As a partner caterer for Royal Museums Greenwich, we’re very much looking forward to working with future guests and clients at these beautiful venues.”

Claire Bastin, head of events at Royal Museums Greenwich, added: “Royal Museums of Greenwich are delighted to welcome Seasoned as an accredited caterer. The tender process was thorough, and competition was fierce however Seasoned impressed in all areas.

“Their commitment to achieving carbon-neutral events and new initiatives on sustainability were outstanding and aligned with our own vision and values to combat climate change”.
