Today we’d like to introduce you to Tiffaney Carr.
Tiffaney, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I started Urban Taste about 4 years ago with the idea of having a catering company that focused on making an impact in the catering world. I wanted Urban Taste to be more involved in creating food that has more focus on using locally sourced and sustainable ingredients with a high attention to exceptional presentation and service. I have been in the food industry since I was a kid so it was always my passion to be in the catering business.
I have worked in almost every industry in the food business including Hotels, restaurant’s, and etc. From my experiences in the food business, I had a lot of knowledge in customer service, food quality and productivity along with creating something from the ground up. I was always a hard worker and I asked and did the task that no one wanted to do to get more training that eventually helps me in my business now.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I don’t think any business will ever have a smooth road but it’s just like any other business. We have great days and opportunities that teach me and my team a great deal of sessions. A lot of the struggles I faced was access to capital, what to do when things don’t always go as planned (this happens every day in catering and really how do you keep going when you get the NO.
Urban Taste Catering – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
