The short answer

Food truck catering at a Sydney pharmaceutical or life sciences site runs from $18 to $35 per head plus GST, all inclusive, with a minimum of 60 guests. We serve from outside the building, entirely on our own generator, gas and water, so nothing we do touches your controlled areas or your utilities. Food safety documentation and a certificate of currency for $20M public liability go across before the day for your induction.

Constraint one: where food is and is not allowed

We stay outside, and that is the point.

On a site with clean rooms, cold chain storage or controlled areas, the whole conversation about catering is really a conversation about containment. Where can food physically be, who is allowed to carry it there, and what happens to the packaging afterwards.

A food truck answers most of that by simply not coming inside. We cook in the truck, outside the building, and people come to us. Nothing is prepared in your space, nothing is stored in your fridges, and nothing needs a bench. If you want food eaten only in a designated area, tell us and we will point people at it as they collect.

Packaging is compostable and we take our own rubbish with us rather than filling your bins. If your site has rules about what may and may not go into which stream, tell us and we will work to them. This is the sort of detail that is easy to agree a week out and awkward to invent on the day.

Constraint two: the audit trail

Quality teams want to see it written down.

In most industries the compliance conversation is a formality. On a pharmaceutical site it is genuinely part of the job, and the people asking are used to reading documents properly rather than filing them.

We hold $20M public liability and can supply a certificate of currency on request. We carry food safety documentation for site inductions, and a Working With Children Check where an event needs one. We are GST registered under ABN 30 609 356 005 and a registered supplier on buy.nsw. If your site has its own induction pack, send it and we will complete it before we arrive rather than at the gate.

On allergens we would rather be careful than confident. Everything on the Abu snack pack truck is halal, although we are not formally halal certified and we will say so plainly. The snack packs are gluten free and gluten free wraps are available on request. Tacos are on soft corn tortillas, gluten free by default. The Belgian fries are cooked in beef tallow, so a separate fryer is needed for vegetarian or vegan, which we can arrange on request. If someone on site has a serious allergy, tell us specifically and we will tell you honestly what we can and cannot guarantee from a truck.

Start to finish

How a site day is planned.

1

Headcount, break pattern and a pin

Tell us how many people, when they actually eat, and where you want the truck. Warehouse, lab and office teams rarely break together, so we plan for waves rather than one rush.

2

Documents before the date

Certificate of currency, food safety documentation and any induction pack your quality or safety team runs. All of it goes across as soon as the booking is confirmed.

3

We agree the boundary and the bins

Where we stand, where people eat, and what happens to packaging. Our packaging is compostable and we take our own waste away, but if your site has stream rules we will follow them.

4

Serve the waves, then leave no trace

We run entirely on our own generator, gas and water. We serve across your windows, pack down, and leave the area as we found it. One tax invoice with GST broken out, terms of 7 to 14 days.

Sigma Healthcare, the whole party in the end

Kemps Creek · Christmas party · several cuisines

Sigma booked us for dessert at their Christmas party. The booking grew into a package covering several cuisines for the whole event, with one point of contact.

The result. One supplier for the whole night, which is one lot of paperwork rather than three.

Simplot, shift teams first, celebration later

Kelso and Bathurst · shift feeds since 2023

We fed Simplot shift teams at their plant from 2023, ordinary feeds done properly and repeatedly. That relationship is what led to being trusted with their 100 year site celebration, booked for September 2026.

The scale. Close to 1,760 guests across two of our larger trucks, off the back of years of routine work.

Hospital and aged care events

Staff days · family days · fundraisers

We cater events for hospitals, clinics and aged care providers: staff appreciation, family days, fundraisers and open days. Events rather than daily meals, which is an important distinction in this sector.

The result. A page of its own, because the rules and the reasons are genuinely different.

FAQ

What quality, safety and site teams ask us.

How much does it cost to cater 120 staff at a pharmaceutical site?

Most corporate jobs run between $18 and $35 per head plus GST, all inclusive of the truck, crew, setup, equipment and pack down. The rate falls as the headcount rises, and it also moves with how many of our four trucks are still free on your date. Send us the date and the headcount for a real number, usually back within the hour.

Do you come inside the building or into controlled areas?

No. We cook and serve from the truck, outside, and people come to us. Nothing is prepared in your space, nothing goes in your fridges, and nothing needs a bench. If you want food eaten only in a designated area, tell us and we will direct people there as they collect.

What food safety documentation can you provide?

We carry food safety documentation suitable for site inductions, and we can supply a certificate of currency for our $20M public liability on request. We also hold a Working With Children Check where an event needs one. Send us your induction pack and we will complete it before the day.

How do you handle allergies and dietary requirements?

Carefully, and honestly. Everything on the Abu snack pack truck is halal, although we are not formally halal certified and we will always say so. The snack packs are gluten free, with gluten free wraps on request. Tacos are on soft corn tortillas, gluten free by default. The Belgian fries are cooked in beef tallow, so vegetarian or vegan versions need a separate fryer, which we can arrange on request. For a serious allergy, tell us specifically and we will be clear about what we can and cannot promise from a truck.

Do you need power or water from the site?

No. Every truck carries its own generator, gas and water on board. Nothing plugs into your supply, so facilities do not need to raise a work order and there is no new load on the site.
