Match the Format to Your
Year-End Event
Compare
all three in our mini buffet vs
full buffet vs bento comparison.
•
Year-end town halls and reviews: Bento catering keeps a timed
programme on schedule, as every guest receives an individually packed meal.
Orders start from 20 boxes.
•
Team appreciation lunches: A mini buffet
suits small teams of 8 to 10, while a full buffet with setup works
for 20 guests and above.
•
Networking sessions and open houses: A tea reception lets guests eat
while they mingle, from 30 guests.

Book Earlier Than Usual
November
and December are peak months for corporate catering in Singapore. Regular orders need 5 to 7
working days, but for year-end dates, book 3 to 4 weeks ahead.
Once
the date is set, confirm your menu and headcount 5 to 7 working days before the
event. Changes to menu, timing and numbers must be confirmed at least 3 working
days ahead, and no amendments are accepted within 24 hours.
Plan for Headcount and Space
December
is leave season, so RSVPs often shift. Update your estimate as confirmations
come in, order for 90 to 100 percent of confirmed guests, and lock the final
number before the cut-off.
Headcount
also affects your space. One buffet counter serves up to 99 guests, and two are
needed from 100 guests. Buffets are delivered 30 to 60 minutes before serving
time and collected two hours after, so check that the counter fits and that
guests can queue without blocking the room. If your venue has loading or lift
access restrictions, mention them when you order, as surcharges may apply.
Budget for the Full Cost
Corporate
menus start from S$9 per pax for bento, S$7.50 per pax for tea reception and
S$14 per pax for buffet. Delivery is S$80 for buffets and tea receptions and
S$50 for mini buffets and bento, with free delivery on buffet orders above
S$1,000 before GST. CBD and Orchard postcodes carry a S$10 surcharge. Our buffet catering cost guide walks through worked examples.
One Halal Menu for the Whole Team
Four
Seasons Catering has been MUIS Halal certified since 1994, so every dish suits
Muslim colleagues as standard, with no separate order needed. Add vegetarian
dishes where required and share allergy details when you book. Read more in our
guide to MUIS
certified catering.
