About us
Bibendum is a catering company founded in the early 2000s. Our work include creation of corporate and private events, weddings, restaurant management, temporary bars and restaurants in companies or show rooms, healthy circular corporate canteens, cooking training, team building, service for starred chefs.
For over 20 years our goal has been to make customers live Food Experiences. Through “Food” we have spread the culture and pleasure of food following principles of ethics, territoriality, seasonality and respect for raw materials; through the "Experience", creativity and research in the preparations, we have made our service a visual emotion as well as a taste.
With this philosophy we create tailor made events, affirming our brand as a partner in sectors such as FASHION, DESIGN, AUTOMOTIVE, ART AND FINANCE.
Starting from May 2020 the company became Benefit and started collaborating with the University of Gastronomic Sciences of Pollenzo, founded by Carlo Petrini and Oscar Farinetti, creators of the Slow Food international cultural movement, to achieve sustainability and circularity objectives inside the company. In this way the project of the first Circular and Sustainable Catering in Italy was created: Catering CEFF (Circular Economy for Food).
During the year of health restrictions, we activated a Research and Development staff to create products that comply with safety protocols. The commitment, combined with the creativity and dynamism of the team, has created Bibendum IN VASO, an eco-friendly alternative to food delivery: a line of gourmet products in a returnable glass jar reusable and 100% recyclable.
