I needed a professional catering service agreement for my small business and found exactly what I was looking for. The template was easy to customise, and I could download it immediately. It saved me a lot of time compared with starting from scratch.

In which cases should I use this catering contract template?

This catering contract template is available in both PDF and Word format and allows parties to solve in advance the following:

  • The details and venue of an upcoming event ,including number of guests and date;
  • The agreed menu;
  • The deposit and payment schedule;
  • Booking and cancellation policy etc.

The present downloadable catering contract sample offers a legal protection for a catered against last minute cancellation by a client or if numbers of guests drop at the last minute.

Whether this catering contract sample aligns with Canadian laws?

This editable document template is drafted in conformity with the Safe Food for Canadians Act (S.C. 2012, c. 24) and provincial public health rules, so a professional caterer is already operating under those standards when they sign.
