New Standards for the catering world
New Standards for the catering world
Our vision
Holistic ecosystem change
Our mission
New benchmarks for the food service industry through platform economy and seamless digitization
Our promise
Innovative economic and ecological approaches that will culminate in a new appreciation and efficacy on the market
Holistic Hospitality
A return to the human touch
We are developing a holistic culture of hospitality; we will tap the culinary diversity of the various regions as a kind of marketplace for the client’s catering outlets.
Digital transformation will make more space for the traditional role as host and create a unique ambience that returns the focus to the individual table guest.
Digital Catering
Technology as the key to more sustainability
We are building a FOOD SERVICE INTELLIGENCE PLATFORM, a unique solution in the sector, which will result in lasting changes.
Unlike the conventional approach, we will not apply modern technology to existing analog systems. Instead, we will establish new, holistic, digital standards and processes with the platform economic solution.
Food Service Science
The future needs roots
We are pooling the interests and knowledge of the industry and unleashing a new creative force that will give food service unprecedented new scope for action.
For many years, Christian Hamerle has cultivated exchange with renowned institutions from the fields of Future Food and Food Service Science and in various food cultures.
His aspiration: “We must work together to shape THE FUTURE OF FOOD SERVICE. This is why it is important to unite efforts beyond business interests.“
