Contract catering across Turkey

We provide contract catering for construction sites, factories, hotels and institutions. In the city where we sign, we set up a kitchen from scratch if needed and start daily meal service with our own team.

Kitchen set-up and operation

From signing to the first meal.

Wherever you are in Turkey, the process is the same. If you have no kitchen we build one; if you do, we take it over. Our team moves in and starts daily service.

  1. 01

    Agreement and needs analysis

    We confirm headcount, meals, shift pattern, location and what your facility already has.

  2. 02

    Site visit and kitchen plan

    We inspect your site and draw up the kitchen layout, equipment list, storage and ventilation needs.

  3. 03

    Kitchen set-up

    We build an industrial or site kitchen from scratch, or take over and reorganise your existing kitchen.

  4. 04

    Team and supply

    We place the head chef, kitchen and service team, set up local suppliers and complete hygiene training.

  5. 05

    First service and ongoing control

    Trial services confirm the menu, then we serve at the same time every day and keep temperature and quality records.

One standard, anywhere in Turkey.

Frequently asked questions

All questions
What services do you offer?
Staff meals come first: contract catering, packed meal delivery and on-site production (kitchen management) for factories, construction sites, hotel staff, schools and offices. We also cater weddings, villa parties, cocktails and corporate events.
Can you set up a kitchen from scratch in another city?
Yes. After signing we inspect your site, draw up the kitchen layout and equipment list, plan the installation and start the service by placing our head chef and kitchen team. For example, we can set up a kitchen in the available space at a factory in Istanbul and serve your staff every day.
What is the difference between contract catering, packed meals and on-site production?
With contract catering, meals are cooked in our central kitchen and served in your canteen. With packed meals, sealed individual packs are delivered to your site or workplace and no canteen is needed. With on-site production, our team cooks in your facility's kitchen. We decide together which fits, based on headcount, meal pattern and your kitchen.
Which areas does Yirmibir Catering serve?
For staff meals we serve anywhere in Turkey: in the province where we sign, we set up or take over the kitchen and start daily service with our team. We have operations in several regions, Istanbul first among them, and also cater events on the Aegean coast.
How are staff meal menus planned?
Menus are prepared monthly and shared with you in advance. A meal usually includes soup, a main course, a side and salad, dessert or fruit. Diet, vegetarian and allergy-specific meals are prepared and labelled separately, and your team's feedback goes into the next menu.
Do you offer trials or tastings?
Yes. For staff meals we start with trial days and finalise portions and menus together. For weddings and large events we hold a tasting once the draft menu is ready and confirm the final menu in writing.
