Session-by-session milestone catering built around the actual shape of your day, from registration breakfast through the evening cocktail reception and gala dinner, using Kenyan dishes your staff and guests will recognise.
Company Anniversary Catering by Hauchi Kay Catering
A company anniversary needs food and drink planned session by session, not a single buffet quote copied from an ordinary office lunch. Hauchi Kay builds the day around your actual timeline, using Kenyan dishes rather than a generic hotel spread.
Every session covered
Registration breakfast, tea breaks, lunch and the evening reception, planned as one day.
Menus scaled to the milestone
A 5th anniversary and a 25th get a different bar and dinner brief.
Full evening bar service
Cocktails, mocktails and event wines with licensed bartenders included.
Kenyan dishes throughout
From mandazi at breakfast to nyama choma at the evening gala.
Halal & dietary options
Halal sourcing and dietary substitutions confirmed at the quotation stage.
Itemised quotations
Broken down by session so finance or procurement can sign off quickly.
Registration Through Lunch
A full anniversary day typically runs 10 to 12 hours, from a 7.30am registration breakfast to a 9pm gala dinner close. Here is how the first half of the day is built.
Registration & Breakfast
Guests trickle in over roughly ninety minutes for badge collection and seating Kenyan chai, mandazi, chapati with sausages and mini samosas from a live station.
Masala chai, beef samosas, vegetable bhajia and mini smokies keep energy up between opening remarks and the programme.
Anniversary Lunch
The anchor meal pilau, mukimo, nyama choma, kienyeji chicken curry and tilapia in coconut sauce, with event wines.
Afternoon Tea and the Evening Reception
This is where cocktails, mocktails and better wines matter most, and where most of the evening budget belongs.
Afternoon Tea
Kenyan chai and iced hibiscus tea, roasted groundnuts, mini mahamri and fruit skewers, bridging the gap before the evening reception begins.
Evening Reception & Gala Dinner
Canapés, a full cocktail and mocktail bar, a plated gala dinner and a sparkling toast wine for the speech and cake-cutting moment.
Venue Type Shapes the Logistics
A hotel ballroom, a private garden and a factory compound each carry different logistics, and the long and short rains make tenting worth confirming early for any outdoor venue.
Hotel Ballroom
Comes with its own kitchen access and power, common for venues in Westlands or along Waiyaki Way.
Private Garden with Tenting
A full mobile kitchen setup, with tenting confirmed early for gardens in Karen, Runda or Muthaiga.
Halal & Dietary-Inclusive Buffet
Halal sourcing and dietary substitutions raised at the quotation stage for a mixed guest list.

How pricing works
Pricing depends on guest count, the milestone year, which sessions you actually need catered and whether the evening includes a full bar. A half-day of tea breaks and lunch sits at the lower end of the market; a full day with a cocktail reception, event wines and a plated gala dinner sits considerably higher. Free, no obligation quotations are available, itemised by session so your finance team can see exactly what each part of the day costs.

Company Anniversary Catering FAQs
How far in advance should we book catering for a company anniversary?
Four to six weeks is usually enough for a standard anniversary, though a milestone year with a full evening bar and a tasting session is safer booked two to three months out, particularly in December or during the long rains.
Do you provide both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks for a mixed guest list?
Yes. Every cocktail on the evening bar has a matching mocktail, so guests who do not drink alcohol still get a properly made, well-presented drink.
Can the catering scale down for a smaller team anniversary?
Yes, the same five-session structure works for teams of 30 to 100 staff. The per-guest rate rises slightly at smaller numbers, but the timeline and menu logic stay the same.
What is actually included in the per-guest rate?
Food preparation and service, waitstaff, buffet or plated equipment, crockery, cutlery, table linen and the drinks package selected. Venue hire, decor, tenting, entertainment and the anniversary cake are quoted separately.
Can the menu reflect a specific milestone year, like a 10th or 25th anniversary?
Yes. A 5th anniversary usually stays casual, tea breaks and a relaxed lunch with a light evening cocktail hour. A 15th to 25th tends to move toward a plated gala dinner, a fuller open bar and a sparkling toast wine service.
Do you handle bar licensing and bartenders for the evening reception?
Yes, liquor sourcing, licensed bartenders and bar equipment are arranged as part of the quotation, so there is no need to book a separate bar vendor.
