Our Back Story. 

Welcome to EFS Catering, where our story began in 2007 after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita devastated New Orleans. Founded by Barb and me, EFS Catering emerged from a need for catering services during those challenging times. Starting with a 53-foot custom-built trailer, we've grown from our humble beginnings to become a dedicated local catering company.

​

Though our roots are in hurricane relief, our primary focus is now serving our local community. We've evolved into a thriving catering business, thanks to our unwavering commitment to quality and exceptional customer service.

​

Despite the challenges posed by COVID-19, we persevered and emerged stronger. In the past two and a half years, we've dedicated our company to serving our guests, team members, community, and God with love and hospitality. Our values include a servant's attitude, humility, and intentional actions.

​

We're also proud to give back to the community through charitable outlets like Seamark Ranch, City Rescue Mission, Gateway Foundation, and Salvation Army.

Our industry recognition reflects our commitment to excellence. We're honored to have you with us as we continue this journey. Thank you for being a part of EFS Catering's story.
