Not Your Average Catering Company

We were excited to learn all about Fat Freddy’s Catering and how they have gotten where they are today, so we sat down with the Marketing Manager, Darci Hawthorne.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that makes Fat Freddy’s Catering stand apart from its competitors. Darci told us that they offer high-quality food and will not settle for anything less.

“We provide quality AND quantity. There are no itty bitty portions here; we’re not called ‘Fat Freddy’s’ for no reason.”

Darci also told us about the Fat Freddy’s Catering business mission, saying:

“Our mission is to share food with anybody and everybody in the valley. We want to make the client’s job easy. We want to take care of the client and guests the whole way through.”

Building Success, Online And Off

Fat Freddy’s Catering has earned a fantastic reputation, so we asked Darci how they have managed to grow their business and get such awesome online reviews. She told us that their staff pay attention to details and know what the clients need. They offer kindness, prompt service, and flexibility, and people appreciate that. They send thank you cards to their clients and are not afraid to ask for reviews. They have even made Facebook posts requesting reviews from their community!

In addition to building the kind of online reputation that any small business would envy, Fat Freddy’s Catering has spread the word about who they are and what they do by being active on social media, advertising their specials, and making sure they show the fun side of their business!

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Fat Freddy’s Catering has managed to. We asked if Darci could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what she had to say:

“Social media is essential, especially for Millenials. It serves as an electronic form of word of mouth. Do the right thing.”


Congratulations to Fat Freddy’s Catering for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Darci for taking the time to speak with us!
