Fresh Start Catering

Fresh Start Catering and Contract Foodservice is an outgrowth of the job training mission at DC Central Kitchen. By employing graduates of the culinary job training program, Fresh Start further prepares them for permanent employment in the foodservice industry. Additionally, all of the proceeds from Fresh Start provide support for the Kitchen's charitable programs, thus creating an on-going, repetitive cycle of training, support and mutual reliance.

Fresh Start Catering was created in 1996 and after ten years in business, is a full-service company, catering to all segments of public organizations, private industry, government, churches, and individuals.We pride ourselves on our customer service and our unique ability to make your event the very best. Using only new, purchased food, Fresh Start will create a menu to suit your event!

Fresh Start also offers a contract foodservice for clients who require regularly delivered, nutritious meals at an affordable cost. Launched in 2001, Contract Foodservice programs answered this need for our partner agencies. Past menus have focused on the special needs of our clients, including menus designed for seniors, diabetics, and to fight obesity in children. We currently serve five agencies in the District.
