Catering & On-Set Services

Here is how the picture comes together. We arrange production catering that keeps crews well fed and on schedule wherever a shoot lands in Turkey. Our team sets up craft services, hot meal service and dietary running for mixed global and Turkish crews, scaling from a small documentary unit to a feature with several hundred people on a crowd day. We plan for the realities of the location — setting up field kitchens and refrigeration at remote spots in Cappadocia or along the coast, sourcing fresh produce from local markets, and building menus that handle the heat of a Mediterranean summer or the cold of a continental winter. Vegetarian, vegan, halal and allergy-specific needs are handled as standard, and we manage hygiene, water supply and waste so catering meets both the production's expectations and Turkish food-safety norms.

Here is what we have to work with. Turkish cuisine gives catering a real advantage on a Turkey shoot. Crews can be fed on döner, Adana and İskender kebabs, a wide range of meze, pide, lahmacun, börek, mantı and künefe, with baklava, lokum and simit on the craft table — food that is fresh, different and genuinely popular with cast and crew alike. Turkish tea (çay) keeps a set running through long days. Turkish coffee — recognised by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage tradition — adds a distinctly local touch to a unit base. We work with caterers who know both global crews expectations and regional specialities, so meals become a part of the location experience rather than an afterthought.
