Sodexo Prestige Scotland planning major catering expansion in north-east of Scotland 16/02/11

Sodexo Prestige Scotland, provider of catering at Aberdeen Football Club, is expanding its operations to offer external catering to clients across the north-east of Scotland.

The company has worked successfully at Aberdeen's Pittodrie Stadium for 18 years serving a wide range of clients who use the stadium for corporate hospitality.

Sodexo Prestige Scotland is hoping to build on these relationships by providing events catering for these clients at other venues such as their offices or marquees. The company has the capacity to provide outside catering for up to 5000 guests at a time.

The company is aiming to replicate the success of Sodexo Prestige Scotland's events catering business in Edinburgh and Glasgow and to establish itself as the leading external catering business in the north-east of Scotland.

Isla Stewart, Sodexo Prestige Scotland sales manager at Aberdeen Football Club, said: "We are very much looking forward to growing the events catering part of our business in Aberdeen and the north-east of Scotland. We are very lucky to have a loyal client base, and we feel that offering this service will enhance our existing relationships, as well as allowing us to work with new clients on exciting new projects at venues across the north-east.

"We really value the strong relationship we have with Aberdeen Football Club and we are looking to enhance this relationship by growing our reputation as leading events caterers in the north-east of Scotland."

Sodexo Prestige Scotland provides catering and events services for a number of Scotland's leading venues, including Hampden Stadium, the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, National Museums Scotland, Perth and Hamilton racecourses, and Glamis and Dundas castles.
