Gourmet Catering & Eventos:
una historia de gastronomía, excelencia y eventos inolvidables
Three generations dedicated to creating unique moments
With more than 75 years of experience in gastronomy, Gourmet Catering & Eventos is a Valencia-based family business, now led by the third generation, with solid expertise in premium catering and events.
Awarded the National Hospitality Innovation Award 2025 and recognised as Best Catering Company in Spain at the Eventoplus Awards 2024, we develop projects with their own identity through a creative, sustainable and personalised gastronomic approach.
Our way of working combines Mediterranean tradition, culinary innovation and a focus on operational excellence, allowing us to guarantee quality, consistency and reliability in every event. We design and deliver weddings, corporate events and social celebrations across the Valencian Community, the Region of Murcia and throughout Spain, adapting to each client, venue and objective.
Today, we deliver more than 2,500 events each year for over 360,000 guests, operating in iconic venues and unique locations, where we combine experience, operational capacity and a management approach focused on planning and continuous improvement.
Operational excellence and innovation at the service of every event
At Gourmet Catering & Eventos, excellence is understood as the rigorous application of standards across every stage of the process: kitchen, logistics, service and client relationship. We work with defined protocols, quality control systems and full traceability, ensuring consistent, reliable and high-quality execution in every event.
We have a dedicated Quality and Food Safety Department, as well as certified processes that ensure compliance with the highest industry standards, both in production and service. This approach is reinforced by the IFS Progress Food certification, making us the first catering company in Spain to obtain it.
Innovation is also a structural pillar of our company. We actively promote applied gastronomic research and development, collaborating with academic institutions and industry partners to continuously evolve our processes and proposals — an approach recognised at national level in 2025 with the National Hospitality Innovation Award by Hostelería de España.
Our production centre, with more than 1,600 m², integrates energy efficiency criteria, process control and continuous improvement, enabling precise and consistent management in every service.
Our gastronomic proposal
At Gourmet Catering & Eventos, our gastronomy is developed in a personalised way with each client, adapting to the type of event, the venue and the experience to be created. Each proposal is built on Mediterranean tradition, incorporating contemporary techniques and seasonal, locally sourced ingredients.
The result is a balanced, creative and coherent cuisine that pays equal attention to flavour and presentation, integrating naturally into the overall event. A gastronomic proposal designed to add value, create lasting memories and elevate the experience in premium settings.
Unique venues for every celebration
At Gourmet Catering & Eventos, we work with a carefully curated selection of iconic venues and unique locations, some managed exclusively and others available upon request. Historic estates and gardens, contemporary spaces and institutional buildings — each event finds the right setting, aligned with its style, format and objectives.
In addition, if the client has their own venue — a private estate, a residence or any special location — we bring our full catering and event production services on-site, adapting to the environment to ensure Gourmet Catering & Eventos’ standards of quality and service in any location.
Team, talent and inclusion
Behind every event at Gourmet Catering & Eventos is a committed professional team, with a strong service culture and a continuous focus on training, stability and professional development. We promote a working environment based on responsibility, respect and continuous improvement, supported by an Equality Plan updated annually.
Diversity and inclusion are part of our people management model. In collaboration with Asindown Valencia and the La Mare Que Va centre, we promote a pioneering programme for training and the labour inclusion of people with Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities within the events sector.
This model combines training with real professional experience, facilitating access to the open labour market and generating a positive impact both on the team and on the client experience. Our talent management has been recognised with awards such as the Fundación Randstad Award 2025 (SME category), the Premis Turisme Comunitat Valenciana 2025 for Tourism Human Capital, the Best Practices in Sustainable Tourism Award 2025 by Fundación Visit València, and the 7th SME Award for Training and Employment 2023 by Cámara Valencia and Banco Santander.
Committed to the environment and the future
Sustainability is a transversal strategic pillar at Gourmet Catering & Eventos. We apply a 360º model aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, integrated across all phases of our activity.
We work with local and proximity-based suppliers, prioritising seasonal products to ensure freshness, traceability and an effective reduction of environmental impact. More than 70% of our fruit and vegetable suppliers come from nearby areas.
Our production centre incorporates renewable energy through a photovoltaic installation, achieving a 28% reduction in energy consumption, and since 2023 we have been calculating our carbon footprint as part of our environmental roadmap.
Among the main measures implemented:
1
Elimination of more than 90% of single-use plastics in our operations
2
Use of reusable tableware and compostable materials
3
Recycling of vegetable oils for biodiesel production
4
Use of certified ecological and biodegradable cleaning products
5
Recovery of organic waste through processes that transform it into energy and natural fertilisers
Responsible food waste management
We understand food waste management as a comprehensive process: prevention is our priority, and when surplus is generated, it is managed responsibly.
In collaboration with the Valencia-based foodtech company Naria, we have implemented a pioneering donation system with blockchain traceability, allowing us to measure and certify the social and environmental impact after each event.
When donation is not possible, waste is redirected to sustainable recovery processes such as composting or energy generation, within a circular economy model.
Innovation, knowledge and awareness
We promote applied research projects and collaborate with academic institutions and industry partners to move towards a more sustainable and healthy events model. In this context, the project “Promoting healthy eating and sustainable management in event organisation”, developed together with CEMAS, the University of Valencia, the University of Alicante, IVIA and the Valencia Conference Centre, was recognised with the NAOS Strategy Award 2023 (AESAN).
We also participate in awareness initiatives such as the documentary “València’s: the city driving a sustainable food change”, promoted by CEMAS–Valencia Sostenible together with the Valencia City Council and the Valencia Conference Centre, which highlights the sector’s transition towards more responsible and sustainable models.
Likewise, our commitment to gastronomic culture is reflected in publications such as Uniting flavors: 360º in maditerranean culinary experience, internationally recognised with the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards 2023.
Key sustainability aspects and alignment with the SDGs
We identify the areas of greatest impact within our activity and align them with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda. This analysis allows us to prioritise actions in areas such as the environment, social responsibility, business ethics and food safety, guiding our strategy towards more responsible, measurable and transparent management.
Partnerships for more sustainable gastronomy
One of our menus is endorsed by The Chefs’ Manifesto, an international initiative linked to the United Nations that promotes healthier and more sustainable food systems. As active members, we apply principles such as the use of local ingredients, waste reduction and biodiversity protection in every event.
