Lokaal.nl is the new generation corporate caterer. We exist to fundamentally change the world of corporate catering and the way people experience their workday. Not by becoming bigger, cheaper or more standardized, but by putting entrepreneurship, experience and meaningful impact at the center of everything we do. From daily lunches and espresso bars to banqueting and event catering, everything we do is tailored to the culture and ambitions of the organizations we serve. Because catering is not a side note. It is culture. It is experience. It is responsibility. We work with local farmers, artisan producers and regional makers. Community and local sourcing are not trends for us. They are structurally embedded in our procurement philosophy. We build short supply chains, strengthen local economies and make sustainable choices measurable and transparent. Our people make the real difference. We invest in culture, inclusivity, onboarding and personal development. Meaningful entrepreneurship is embedded in our governance and decision-making. We do not just say we are sustainable. We invite others to test it. We stand for entrepreneurship. We create experience. We believe every moment should be meaningful. This is the new generation of corporate catering.
