283: Event Profs in Elevators — Moving Conversations for Better F&B at Events

🚀 Join me as I take an elevator ride with Devon Pasha, an expert in event planning and inclusivity! 🎙️ 

Devon and I delve deep into the pivotal role of offering diverse food options at events rather than simply replacing items.

We discuss how to craft inclusive menus that cater to everyone’s needs, from ensuring dietary restrictions are respectably met to enhancing customer experience and loyalty. 🥗🍰 Devon shares intriguing real-life stories, like a hotel that brilliantly accommodated guests with allergies, resulting in boosted satisfaction and occupancy rates.

We also touch on the logistical and financial aspects of event planning, highlighting the necessity of early conversations with attendees and advocating for contracts that secure value for money. Get ready to explore profitable inclusivity, the art of negotiating in the food and beverage industry, and Devon's passion for creating welcoming environments at events. 🍽️💼

💡 Tune in to discover how inclusivity isn’t just a moral imperative but a strategic advantage in event planning. ❤️
