The ‘Contract Caterer of the Year’ category covered many sectors, not just school catering. Making this a significant win for Dolce.

Scott Curtis, Managing Director at Dolce, said: “We are absolutely over the moon to win Contract Caterer of the Year and not only be recognised amongst education caterers, but caterers across the whole of the public sector.

“It’s an incredible honour to be acknowledged for our commitment to plant-forward, climate-friendly catering – as well as our efforts to reduce food waste and energy usage. Our team pour energy and heart into everything we do. From developing nutritious menus to building strong relationships with schools, pupils and parents. We’re proud to deliver a catering service that really makes a difference. This award belongs to every member of Team Dolce.”

A huge thank you to our colleagues, partners and schools we work with – without your support, we couldn’t do it. And congratulations to all the other finalists and winners from last night’s celebration. Here’s to another year of raising the bar in school catering!
