Excellence is something we strive for every day, and it’s always rewarding when that dedication is recognised. Each year, the Restaurant & Catering Awards for Excellence celebrate the best in Australia’s food service industry, and this year, several of our Cater Care teams have shone brightly. From schools to aged care, our people continue to deliver outstanding food, service, and care to every community we serve.
Earlier this year, two of our South Australian teams received state honours at the Restaurant & Catering SA Awards for Excellence:
Their achievements even earned them a letter of congratulations from Andrea Michaels, South Australia’s Minister for Small and Family Business, who thanked them for contributing to the state’s vibrant food service industry.
These noteworthy wins enabled them to represent South Australia at the National Hostplus Awards for Excellence. Congratulations to:
Then in New South Wales:
This recognition showcases the outstanding work our teams consistently deliver. Being nominated is a notable achievement in itself!
The Restaurant & Catering Awards celebrate outstanding food quality, exceptional service, presentation, staffing, and successful catering outcomes. Judges assess what’s served on the plate, how it’s delivered, the professionalism of the teams, and the overall experience created for clients. Recognition in these awards reflects the hard work, dedication, and attention to detail our teams bring to every service.
These awards also showcase how our Care, Pride, and Community values come to life every day. At Westminster School, teams demonstrate Care through personalised attention to students’ dietary needs, while Cancer Council Greenhill Lodge teams take Pride in consistently delivering high-quality meals with precision. Across all our sites, we foster a sense of Community, ensuring that dining experiences connect and support the people we serve.
So, a huge congratulations to all our South Australia and New South Wales teams for your passion, professionalism, and commitment to creating memorable dining experiences. Recognition like this is a testament to the wider great work we do across all our sites and communities.
These achievements honour individual teams and reflect the culture of excellence we continue to nurture across Cater Care.
It’s been a milestone year for Cater Care as we celebrate 25 years of service. A year full of achievements, partnerships, and award-winning moments. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and inspired by the dedication of every team member.
