Hotel Business Conference Survey

Would you prefer pre-packaged F&B boxes to buffets/coffee stations/passed hors d’oeuvres?

Most of the respondents prefer pre-packaged F&B over buffet stations and passed hors d’oeuvres.

“As demand for meetings and group events begins to return, it’s essential that planners work with their event venue to identify appropriate precautions in an effort to ensure attendee safety, comfort and well-being. One way to accomplish that is by providing attendees with more options and control over their environments throughout the meeting experience in order to provide peace of mind. From a food and beverage perspective, that may mean planners need to forgo traditional buffets and collaborate closely with their venue to understand available options for different dining experiences. Depending on the nature of the meeting, venue and size of the group, individually pre-packaged items may be a good alternative.”
