Catering Update

Cafe Evoke Catering is getting closer and closer to being ready to serve the finest in fairly traded, organic coffees and teas at your next wedding, party, meeting, or brunch! We got quite a bit done over the weekend and are very excited with our progress so far. We have a bit to go still but think we will be ready in the next several weeks. Here is a list of "to-do's" in order to get this up and going. 1. Meet with kitchen planner to figure out what our equipment needs are. 2. Get budget put together and approved 3. Find and purchase 110v commercial espresso machine (Item found -- in final stages) 4. Find and purchase a 6x10 trailer (Item found -- in final stages) 5. Find and purchase a cart (Item found -- in final stages) 6. Get paper work completed for catering license 7. Find and purchase misc equipment (listed and ready to purchase) 8. Finalize pricing strategy 9. Create list of packages that we will offer in the future 10. Talk with area catering about using us (The first steps have been completed but this will continue throughout the life of this business) 11. Get quotes for printed coffee sleeves 12. Set up accounts at our roaster and tea distributers 13. Get Health Department paperwork filled out with the help of our kitchen designer. This is a simplified list but one that covers most of what we are working on. I will have more info as each of these things get checked off the list including pictures of equipment and our set up. There are a few other things we are working on in support of this project. One of them is the all new Cafe Evoke website. This will feature sections on the catering gig and also all about our missions, goals, and values for Cafe Evoke (the coffeehouse). Be looking for these changes in the next month or so. Things are finally moving forward for us and Cafe Evoke and it feels good to know that we are close to serving coffee to this community. We are still about 10 months away from opening the doors of our cafe but this will be a good way to get our name out there and create some buzz. We already have Saturday night and Sunday morning full time gigs which is nice. I will update the above list this week as we get the rest of this going. ...be bold Tagged: Cafe Evoke Catering, coffee, bozeman, montana
