Stand-out events
We’re proud to have serviced clients big and small, private and corporate, who have and continue to choose Quench as their preferred supplier.
It goes without saying that every job we undertake is afforded exceptional attention to detail — and when you’re working on a global stage it’s even more crucial to ensure that all the players receive the kind of world-class service they’ve come to expect.
We have extensive experience working with big internationals and know exactly what it takes to cater to them at this level. Take a look at a breakdown of some of our stand-out events and what they entailed.
01 — Band, tour & production crew catering backstage
Backstage at Global Citizen: Move Afrika our team kept the band, tour management and production crews fuelled — hearty hot buffets, fresh salads and comfort classics, all served from our own labelled Quench x Como stations.
02 — Official catering, courtside & behind the scenes
When the Basketball Africa League hit the court, Quench x Como ran the catering — from the official catering point to a busy crew dining hall keeping production staff well fed between sessions.
03 — VIP hospitality & bars, ringside
From the red carpet to the final bell: our bar and catering teams looked after the VIP lounge and ringside guests all night long.
04 — Tour crew catering
Touring crews need real food, on time, every time. For The Lumineers we set up a full crew dining room — grazing boards, fresh fruit, salad bars, sandwiches and hot dishes from our kitchen team.
05 — Lush, flower-filled grazing tables
Edible flowers, overflowing platters, tiered stands and fresh fruit everywhere you look — a grazing table that was as much décor as it was food.
06 — 3 days, 30 events, all the laughs
3 days, 30 small events of 100 people, live music, installations, all the laughs and so much more! The VW T-Roc #UNlaunch event spectacular was such a fun and special event that we did the guest catering and bars for. We were pushed to think out of the box to create an #UNexpected, #UNconventional and #UNordinary menu to match the event’s theme, along with cocktails sponsored by Musgrave and Schweppes.
We also had the privilege of keeping artists Ami Faku and Tamara Dey – Dey L’afrique fed with our divine platters. Huge shout outs to the killer teams that made this such a success and for choosing #Quench to make it happen. Thank you Volkswagen, One-eyed Jack, Mushroom Productions, Musgrave Spirits, Schweppes South Africa and Rain Productions.
07 — Marquee bars & canapés trackside
A glowing mobile bar overlooking the track, silver platters of sliders, skewers and sweet treats, and a team that kept every guest in the marquee happy.
08 — Elegant tables & generous buffets
Dressed tables, gleaming gold cutlery and a generous hot buffet served by our team — a banquet hall full of happy, well-fed guests.
09 — Marquee catering & dessert spreads
Under the marquee at an outdoor music festival: hot buffets, fresh salads, fruit platters and decadent desserts to keep guests and crew going.
Since 2013
