A few years ago, Alvida started making its services more sustainable, so that we provide the events and parties for our customers in an environmentally conscious way with the climate as a starting point. We would like to take you through the steps we have taken.
We use the paperless office principle. Almost all internal and external documentation is sent digitally as much as possible. This includes contracts, quotes, invoices and other means of communication. All documents are stored on encrypted hard drives, which also ensures the security of our customers' data. These hard drives are encrypted and are stored in various safes.
Both at our location and at our customers' location, we only use LED lighting and energy-efficient equipment. This applies to, among other things, the lighting, the ambient lighting, the colored LED spots and the bar lighting. All our cranes have a water-saving aerator. This means that we saved 40% and 50% on water use in 2019 and 2020, respectively.
In recent years, transport reduction has helped us to go back to half of our fleet. By focusing efficiently on transport and the use of energy-efficient cars, we are contributing a very big step in reducing CO2 emissions.
Waste prevention, and in particular combating food waste. Using energy efficiently and creating recyclable packaging often result in less waste. The waste generated in our production is separated and processed daily so that 98% of our waste can be recycled.
Our products are produced by sustainable cultivation, so that no or less damage is caused to biodiversity, ecosystems, water and climate. Better for the environment, so better for you, that's why we work with fresh, local and seasonal ingredients.
Last but not least, an honest presentation. During an event, buffet, barbecue or food market, the presentation is of course just as important as the points mentioned above. We make extensive use of recycled products in the presentation of our dishes. This includes the well-known wooden crates, beautiful and responsible decorative items that we maintain in-house so that they can be used again at any event. You will also find our famous spice crates at all our buffets, food markets and barbecue events so that your guests cut the herbs themselves, it couldn't be fresher! In addition, where possible, we work with biodegradable disposables and the materials we use are purchased completely sustainably.
What a top team! Last Saturday, the Alvida team gave our colleagues and partners an unforgettable evening! From the very first contact, there was an immediate click. Alvida is open to all wishes, thinks along with you and provides professional advice. They clearly know what they are doing! On the evening itself, everything was really taken care of down to the last detail. Exactly how I had it in mind or even better! The team consists of representative and hardworking ladies and gentlemen, you are so nice! Everyone immediately had the feeling of Christmas and it stayed that way all evening. A big thank you to all of you, I'm thankful I got to know you! Good luck with all future assignments and hope to see you soon!!

Thank you so much for the fantastic party! Compliments to the team who were right on time and worked incredibly hard. We also really liked how we thought along with us about the catering arrangements, about the design of the space, lighting, etc. The contact was very professional but also very personal. We also congratulate you on your reliability and flexibility. We would love to use Alvida for our next event.
We have experienced the cooperation with Alvida as very pleasant. The personal guidance pleasantly surprised us. Furthermore, your punctuality and flexibility were remarkable. When we throw another party, we hope to be able to use your services again! Until then, we wish you the best of luck, best regards,
Alvida Catering & Events quickly took up our request for a quote and provided us with an appropriate and surprising first proposal. Adjustments and even increasing the number of people a week prior to our event were addressed immediately and smoothly. The personal contact was very nice, both by phone to prepare for the event and on site during the event. We thought carefully about how to furnish the interior and make the view as beautiful as possible. The decorated bar also matched perfectly in our completely renovated kitchen showroom. The staff was very pleasant to work with and the snacks and drinks were delicious. In between, empty glasses, etc. were actively cleaned up, so that it also remained tidy. Afterwards, the cleaning up (partly at our own request) went amazingly well. In short: our wishes have been fully realised in all areas. We are very grateful!
A bit late response from us but we still want to thank you for all the good service, delicious barbecue, snacks, etc. Thanks to you, we also experienced a fantastic party. We received so many nice reactions and really enjoyed our party.
Thanks again and will definitely share our experiences with all our friends so maybe we'll see each other again!!
For our drink in Amsterdam, I was looking for a
total concept, including both catering and decoration, also because we were quite late in starting the organization of this event. On the Alvida website, I found exactly what I was looking for.
Because the space where the drinks had to be organized
be had quite a few restrictions, Roy thought along with us during an appointment on location. A lot of atmosphere had to be created and that was completely done as desired.
Despite the fact that the turnout was much higher than we had budgeted,
Roy and his team were very flexible and extra drinks and snacks could be supplied while maintaining the quality completely the same.
