We were one of the most successful Tier 2 caterers of the games, gaining 99% satisfaction scores and making a solid profit. We were also one of the smallest, independent caterers in the games. Together, we created and developed The Fine Food Company of street-food and event catering brands, as well as hot dog street stand Coffee Dogs, roast chicken format Rotisserie Chicken and the flagship Prime Burger brand, including all the brand identity, back story, design assets and content, across multiple platforms and formatsI create all the media messaging for our brands from concept through creative to publication, including shooting and editing video for multi-platform publication; managing websites, digital menu screens and all social media; writing content for social media posts to industry and consumer press releases. Communicating internally with our people was a fundamental part of achieving a successful operation. I wrote staff handbooks and "how-to" guides and manuals for every aspect of our business.
