03 June 2026 · Mamijojo Cuisine & RentalsHow to Choose a Corporate Catering Vendor in Lagos
Corporate events in Lagos carry your company's reputation. A poorly catered boardroom lunch or product launch can undermine months of brand-building. As one of Lagos' leading corporate caterers, Mamijojo Cuisine & Rentals wants to help you make the right choice � even if you do not choose us.
8 Non-Negotiables for Corporate Catering
1. Punctuality track record � Ask for references and specifically ask about timing. 2. Professional serving staff � Uniformed, trained, discreet. 3. Dietary accommodation � Ability to handle vegetarian, halal, and allergy requirements. 4. Corporate experience � Have they served high-profile clients? Ask for proof. 5. Health certification � Ensure NAFDAC and food safety compliance. 6. Clean contract � Written agreement covering quantities, timing, and contingencies. 7. Backup plan � What happens if a staff member falls sick? What is their contingency? 8. Post-event cleanup � Do they clear up after service or leave it to your team?
Red Flags to Watch For
