Document background
The Preferred Caterer Agreement is a vital document for venues and catering businesses operating in the Netherlands that wish to establish a formal, ongoing catering service relationship. This agreement is commonly used by hotels, conference centers, event spaces, and other venues that require regular professional catering services. The document encompasses all essential aspects of the catering relationship, including service standards, operational procedures, financial arrangements, and regulatory compliance requirements under Dutch law. It provides a framework for managing the relationship between the venue and the preferred caterer, ensuring clear understanding of responsibilities, risk allocation, and performance expectations. The agreement must comply with Dutch food safety regulations, commercial law, and relevant provisions of the Burgerlijk Wetboek, while also addressing practical operational needs and commercial interests of both parties.
