Bristol contract catering business Fosters Event Catering has secured a £10m catering contract with the Bristol Zoological Society.
The five-year contract will see Fosters Events work with the Society's Wild Place Project, which opened in 2013 and will be renamed Bristol Zoo Project this summer.
It is the latest contract win for Fosters Events, which has worked with a number of national visitor attractions.
