Bon Appetit

"The only significant propriety component of Bon Appétit is our people who differentiate us from the competition by being more skilled and more passionate about food. They understand it all comes down to what's on the plate."
Fedele Bauccio CEO, Bon Appétit Management Company

Our Dream is to be the premier onsite custom restaurant company known for its culinary expertise and exceptional customer service.

Our Company

Bon Appétit Management Co. is an onsite custom restaurant company offering full food service management by providing café and catering service to corporations, colleges and universities, and specialty venues. We have over 148 clients in twenty-one states. Founded in 1987 as a catering company, the hallmark of Bon Appétit's expertise is serving fresh, high quality food that is prepared from scratch using authentic ingredients. We are also especially concerned with supporting sustainable food supplies and local producers.

At Bon Appétit, we believe food service serves a much larger purpose than simply nourishment. Dining rooms are gathering places. Breaking bread together helps to create a sense of community and comfort. We recognize the important role we fill and take great care to honor our position on a corporate or school campus or at a specialty venue. We show this care in our operations every day by…

  • Cooking food from scratch with fresh seasonal ingredients
  • Taking our role in the community seriously and making socially responsible purchasing decisions in regards to produce, seafood, coffee and disposable plates and service ware
  • Providing opportunities for all our employees, including student workers, to develop their potential and abilities
  • Recognizing that every school or company we serve is unique and creating food programs tailored to each
  • Serving a wide variety of menu items at each meal, each day keeping things fresh, fun, and interesting - you'll never find a cycle menu at a Bon Appétit account
  • Viewing our operations as onsite restaurants competing with local off campus restaurants - never resting on the idea of a "captive audience"
  • Serving great tasting, authentic and nutritious food that exceeds the expectations of vegetarian, vegan, and international diners

Our Philosophy
We will conduct our business with the highest ethical standards and believe the following values are fundamental to our success:

  • Attract, motivate and retain strong, participative and enthusiastic people who care
  • Practice open and timely two-way communication with the expectation and confidence that well-informed people will do the right thing
  • Keep an open mind to new ideas and encourage innovation and risk-taking with the understanding that sometimes we fail
  • Provide opportunities for all employees to develop their potential and abilities
  • Encourage promotions from within and provide fully competitive compensation and incentives
  • Provide leadership and rewards that will motivate employees to seek excellence in every part of their job
  • Define quality as performing up to customer expectations and then doing more. Be willing to make changes in structure and in specific strategies while holding on to our fundamental principles
  • Make product quality and product safety the responsibility of every employee
  • Remember to have fun and not take ourselves too seriously.
  • Cherish our customers through quality performance and outstanding service

We believe that if we live by these values, Bon Appétit will indeed be a very select company and we will reach our dream. We have the conviction that today can be a little better and a little more fulfilling than yesterday. We have the will to achieve excellence through a wealth of dedicated management talent, our most precious asset.

And we have the courage to look closely at ourselves, so that we are always striving to improve.
