Overview

A clearer way to manage your mobile catering paperwork

Mobile catering is event-led, kit-bound work — the van or trailer arrives at a wedding, a festival, a corporate event, sets up service, runs the shift, packs down, drives home. The cooking is your craft; the paperwork around it (event booking, allergen register, food-safety records, gas-and-electric trade-test, deposit policy, GDPR for client data) is what protects margin when an event date moves or a council inspector asks for evidence of food-safety practice. LaunchKit gives UK mobile catering operators ready-made templates for much of that admin layer: business documents (event booking and design brief, allergen register, food safety records, gas-and-electric trade-test record, deposit-and-cancellation policy, photo consent, GDPR notice, complaint procedure), financial trackers and invoicing, a pricing calculator that works out each price from your hours, hourly rate and materials, an AI copy kit for event-side comms, and a startup guide. Every template is UK-specific, A4 print-ready and built around how UK mobile caterers actually trade across weddings, festivals and corporate events.

What we solve

Common UK admin problems we solve

  • Allergen and food-safety records inconsistent across events, with no central event-by-event log when a council inspector asks for evidence
  • Gas-and-electric trade-test certificates handled trade-style, with no central record when a venue asks for evidence before you trade
  • Per-head vs day-rate vs weekend-event pricing inconsistent, and underlying earn-per-event hard to read
  • Self-assessment compiled each January from card statements, event-platform takings and supplier accounts
  • The same enquiry replies, event-day timeline confirmations and post-event follow-ups rewritten from blank every booking

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are these mobile-catering templates UK-specific?
Yes. A4 print-ready, GBP, UK conventions for event booking, allergen, food-safety, gas-and-electric trade-test and customer paperwork. The pack reflects the documents UK mobile caterers typically maintain — they support your existing food-safety qualification and gas/electric certification, not replace them.
Do the documents cover what venues and councils typically ask before trading?
Yes. The event-booking pack includes a venue-and-council-document schedule (food-safety registration evidence, public liability insurance, gas trade-test, electric trade-test, allergen register) so you can show evidence at the gate without scrambling.
What file formats do I get?
Essential Business Documents are starter PDFs with a fillable business-name header. Customisable Financial Forms are browser-personalisable HTML. Premium arrives in two downloads: interactive fillable PDFs plus editable DOCX files, and a separate fill-online HTML bundle. The pricing calculator is an Excel workbook. The AI Copy Kit contains 4 editable DOCX files and 4 read-only reference PDFs; it does not generate content automatically.
Where should the week's receipts sit?
Keep them with the job notes from the same week. A short filing slot is enough to put the receipt, the customer and the amount in one place, so the folder is ready when you review it.
