Freemans aid return of F&B to Kingsholm Stadium

Events catering company Freemans Event Partners has reported on the success of a recent full food and beverage solution offered at Gloucester Rugby’s Kingsholm Stadium.

The Premiership rugby match between Gloucester and Harlequins took place on September 14 and was part of the wider scheme to bring back live events in England with fans in the stadium. Working in tandem with Gloucester Rugby, Freemans was able to deliver a full-service event to 1,000 fans who entered a ballot to attend live.

To comply with the regulations, Freemans provided in-seat service to the event goers who were able to order and make payments via Seat Serve on a mobile phone app. The rugby supporters were able to choose from a selection of fast foods and drinks from a full-service bar.

Throughout the game, a group of runners delivered over 559 separate orders to fans in their seats. Stephen Freeman, CEO of Freemans Event Partners, said: “We were really pleased to be part of the fan experience and being able to deliver quality food and beverages.

“This has been a challenging time for the event industry and I am proud of the response from all our employees who have enabled us to continue to deliver the top-quality service which Freemans Event Partners is renowned for, but in a new way.

“As sporting events return to the calendar, we hope to be working with more of our partners to deliver event solutions in a socially responsible way. We are supporting numerous clients getting fans back into venues safely.”
