Sodexo Prestige to cater 2013 Radio Forth awards
Sodexo Prestige has been appointed to cater for the 2013 Radio Forth awards as it celebrates its 10th anniversary.
The caterer will deliver banqueting to 600 guests at the annual event, held in Edinburgh's Usher Hall (pictured), on 6 November.
Austin Tilsley, Scotland regional director at Sodexo Prestige, said: "Our chefs are top notch and are looking forward to coming up with the ideal menu for the night.
"That's the challenge for the kitchen team, but there's a huge amount of other work that goes in to planning something as big as this."
The menu, which will be unveiled on the day, is expected to comprise locally-sourced, sustainable and in-season produce.
Much of the 80-strong Sodexo Prestige team will be recruited locally through colleges, universities and local recruitment websites.
Sodexo Prestige operates at 17 venues in Scotland including the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, National Museums of Scotland, Hampden Stadium, Perth and Hamilton Park racecourses, Blair Castle and Aberdeen Football Club. It also provides catering for the Open Championship.
Sodexo Prestige in Scotland has enjoyed a record year for its conferencing and banqueting business with sales up 45% in 2012.
