Cabbilicious Foods, a premium catering company founded and led by Executive Chef, Nutritionist and Food Safety Professional Blessing Bashorun, is strengthening its presence in Nigeria’s corporate and institutional catering market.

The company, which initially built its reputation around private events and weddings, has expanded its operations to serve corporate organisations, government institutions, financial institutions and development organisations.

The expansion reflects the company’s growing capacity to handle the demands of clients requiring high-volume catering services while maintaining consistent standards in food quality, presentation and professional service.

Unlike one-off private events, corporate and institutional catering often involves larger volumes, tighter timelines and recurring engagements, requiring caterers to maintain consistent standards across multiple assignments.

Bashorun, who is also the Founder and CEO of Cabbilicious Culinary School, has positioned food safety, nutrition, consistency and professional service at the centre of the company’s operations.

Her professional training in food safety and nutrition, combined with advanced event management studies at Lagos Business School, has influenced the systems and standards adopted by Cabbilicious Foods as it expands into the corporate and institutional market.

“Reliability is built when a client knows the quality they received today is the same quality they can expect the next time they work with you,” Bashorun said.

“For us, that means paying attention to every part of the process and making sure our standards do not change, regardless of the size of the engagement,” she added.

Catering for Diverse Institutions

Cabbilicious Foods offers a range of African, Continental and Oriental cuisine, allowing the company to cater to clients with different tastes, event formats and institutional requirements.

The company’s clientele cuts across different sectors, from formal events organised by financial institutions to large-scale gatherings involving government and development organisations.

According to the company, its expansion into the corporate and institutional segment reflects the changing expectations within Nigeria’s catering industry, where organisations with recurring and high-volume catering needs increasingly require service providers capable of demonstrating consistency, reliability and professional standards.

“For us, growth in this segment is not just about serving more clients. It is about building systems that allow us to maintain quality, professionalism, and trust as the business expands,” Bashorun said.

From One-Off Events to Recurring Engagements

The company’s growing corporate footprint has also resulted in relationships with some institutional clients developing from one-off engagements into recurring assignments.

Cabbilicious Foods said the transition reflects the confidence clients place in a service provider that consistently meets agreed standards and delivers reliably.

For Bashorun, the development is consistent with the company’s original objective of building a catering business whose reputation extends beyond the quality of its food to include reliability, professionalism and trust.

As demand for corporate and institutional catering continues to grow, Cabbilicious Foods is positioning itself to serve organisations that require dependable catering services while maintaining its focus on food quality, safety and customer experience.

With its expanding institutional clientele and emphasis on structured operations, the company is seeking to establish itself as a dependable player in Nigeria’s premium catering industry.
