Biscuits & Berries

What Biscuits & Berries does

Biscuits & Berries is a privately held, full-service catering company headquartered in Golden, Colorado, founded in 1991 by Micki Neely. The company serves weddings, corporate events, social gatherings, and non-profit functions across the Colorado Front Range through two primary service lines: on-site staffed catering, where the company transports a mobile kitchen to client venues and prepares food from scratch on location, and a delivery catering line covering breakfasts, lunches, dinners, box lunches, appetizers, and desserts with a 10-guest minimum. The on-site from-scratch cooking model is the central technical differentiator, marketed as a quality advantage over competitors who reheat pre-prepared food at events.

The business operates on a sales-led, custom-quote go-to-market: customers submit order requests via the website, phone, or email; an event designer or sales lead builds a customized proposal; and the engagement closes on a per-event basis with payment due the business day prior to service. Pricing is unit-based for delivery menus ($12-$25 per person across categories) and custom-quoted for full-service events with weekend food-and-beverage minimums of $450-$1,000 depending on date availability. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time professional-services engagements rather than recurring contracts, though some corporate clients (e.g., Children's Hospital Colorado, University of Colorado Anschutz, P2 Energy, KidsTek) represent multi-year repeat relationships. The company supplements its core catering with a strategic partnership with Peak Beverage (preferred bartending and liquor partner of nearly a decade) and an approved venue network exceeding 100 Colorado venues.

Operationally, the company runs a 51-100-person team structured around dedicated Director-level Sales, HR/Staffing, and Operations functions, with specialized culinary roles (Executive Chef, Sous Chef, Garde Chef) and event execution roles (Senior Event Designer, Lead Event Manager, Event Designer). Scale in 2019 included 161,010 meals delivered to 4,530 clients, 517 full-service events including 178 weddings, and 462,504 guests served. The company is founder-owned with no disclosed external private equity, venture capital, or institutional investor involvement. Geographic operations are explicitly restricted to Colorado Front Range, with no service offered outside the state.
