The carrier must also decide whether to operate its own catering operation or whichcaterer to contract with. This decision is based upon location, availability, reliability,long time relationships, cost and convenience.
The interaction of the players, the airlines, the caterers, the manufacturers/suppliers and the distributors is the key in providing quality food service to passengers on airline carriers. These four components of the industry must communicate and work in agreement to achieve excellence in their endeavours. More than any other industry, these constituents are interlinked. It is difficult to separate clearly the functions of these players as roles and responsibilities overlap. The overlap and the co-operation found in this industry are what make it so interesting.
