What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?

In order to provide the most accurate quotation we need to know the date, venue, the number of guests and the time the service is required, we normally work on a minimum of a 4-hour serving duration. The more details you can provide to us, the more creative we can be with suggestions and ideas to ensure your event is simply the best!

What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Firstly, the most important thing for me would be the quality of the coffee. We offer our potential clients the opportunity to come over to our unit and try our coffee. You need to be sure that you are buying a quality product and the proof is in the tasting. Look at the number of years a Supplier has been in the business and the experience they have. Website or social media content can often give a good indication of the type of quality and service you are likely to receive.

Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.

I had always dreamed of having my own business, my parents ran a catering business so I guess I sort of grew up with it. Back in 2007, I found that you could always buy a decent coffee in town, but never at an event. So with mobile coffee in mind, I embarked on what is now a 13-year journey with Express Coffee Cars! The business started in little Smart Cars with a coffee machine in the back, as you can see from our website, we now have 5 stunning units in our fleet.

Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?

We have had a considerable amount of interest in our business through Add to Event, its really easy to use as a Supplier and potential customers send through quotation information, making it easy to provide a reply quickly and efficiently. I would certainly recommend to any of my catering colleagues to add themselves to this site.
