In Conversation with Chandan Fogueri & Kundan Fogueri

The hospitality sector has undergone a tremendous change in the last few years. Initially for any catering order the focus was on the taste and not on the presentation. But now the customers not only want good taste but even want good presentation with good set up. So as a caterers we need to put our investment in having good set up with the latest designs and technology. Earlier the customers need was very limited to few dishes of their locality but now the need has increased with a huge and lavish buffets of various cuisines. Catering sector is the most unorganised sector in India but now this trend has also changed a lot for the better. After Covid the focus is now on the safety standards with hygenic tools. This will now continue further. We have to cater to the customised and personalised service of the customers. Social media plays an important role in marketing and strategies.
