Eat To The Beat wins 'Favourite Caterer' for the ninth year at TPi Awards
Last week, live event catering company Eat To The Beat scooped the TPi Awards for 'Favourite Caterer' in the prestigious ceremony that recognises achievement for services working within the live production industry.Eat To The Beat was founded by Global Infusion Group's owner, Tony Laurenson, 28 years ago. He started out with just two portable flight cased kitchen 'rigs' and went on tour; one of the earliest was with Iron Maiden, for whom the company still caters today.
Since then the business has grown steadily each year and now has a permanent presence on four continents around the world. The company is now recognised globally and 2012 is also the first year they have scooped the Tour Link ‘Top Dog’ Award for Best Caterer in the USA.
From its touring beginnings ETTB now caters worldwide for all manner of live events, from music tours and a plethora of major international festivals to sporting events and shoots for the film and TV industry.
ETTB work behind the scenes keeping artists, performers and production crews well fed, watered and happy during their often busy and demanding schedules. The company culture is to take pride in an 'enjoy what you do, always be flexible and serve with a smile' ethos which is passed down to every member of the team.
ETTB attributes its success to this ethos, and the fact that the company retains a personal and hands-on service despite its international growth, acting as an extension rather than an addition to the client team, to almost become ‘one of the crew’.
Widely popular in Europe, touring with acts such as Coldplay, Snoop Dogg and Whitesnake in 2011-2012, ETTB are also currently touring with Cirque du Soleil Saltimbanco and Alegria across Europe and Russia.
With offices now covering the US, Europe, Middle East and China, and a new base in Russia being planned, ETTB are looking forward to a busy 2012. Their offering of the best tour catering with the same quality, consistency and value for money the world over.
