Hoogan et Beaufort Événement

What Hoogan et Beaufort Événement does

Hoogan et Beaufort Événement is a premium catering and event planning company headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, operating as the events division of the Hoogan et Beaufort family of businesses founded by Chef Marc-André Jetté. The company delivers end-to-end culinary event services across six core formats: Cocktail dinatoire, Stations en salle (live culinary stations), Banquet à l'assiette (plated banquet), Mariage (wedding catering), Chef à domicile (in-home private chef for groups of 12 or more), and Événement culinaire sur mesure (custom culinary events). Complementary offerings include turnkey event planning with artistic direction, florists, lighting, and musicians, as well as professional bar and sommelier service featuring private import wines and craft cocktails.

The underlying technical foundation is culinary rather than digital: no proprietary software platform, APIs, or technology products are disclosed. Core differentiation rests on author cuisine (cuisine d'auteur) emphasizing wood-fired cooking, no processed products, and locally sourced Quebec ingredients (La Canardière duck, Île-du-Prince-Édouard beef) supplied in part through the family-owned Édouard et Léo butcher shop, with wine program support from the sister Annette wine bar.

The business model is direct-to-consumer and project-based, with quote-based pricing ranging from approximately $2,500 to over $25,000 per event depending on guest count, menu complexity, and service scope. The company serves two primary segments: couples planning weddings and corporate clients hosting galas, retreats, and celebrations, plus a secondary segment of private individuals hosting in-home gatherings. Go-to-market is regional (Quebec/Montreal) and relationship-driven, leveraging brand association with the flagship Hoogan et Beaufort restaurant, word-of-mouth, a bilingual website with service request forms, email newsletter, and LinkedIn presence. Notable enterprise customers include Porsche (300-guest anniversary event), Opéra de Montréal (500-guest gala), Davies (180-guest corporate retreat), and Rachel Julien (125-guest 30th anniversary celebration).
