What Partage does
Partage, operating under the DBA "Partage by The Everyday Chef & Wife," is a privately held, for-profit culinary hospitality business founded by husband-and-wife Jason (chef) and Kate (creative), headquartered at 834 Cherry St SE in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The company delivers chef-driven catering services across five service styles — drop-off, family-style, roaming dinners/stations, curated chef experiences, and butler-style service — for corporate events, weddings, showers, graduations, and milestone celebrations, with menus customizable to dietary needs and built around local, organic, and on-site-prepared ingredients. Beyond catering, Partage runs a recurring calendar of ticketed themed pop-up dining experiences (e.g., Harry Potter dinners, Bridgerton brunches, Spirited Away and Hobbit-style brunches), rents its Grand Rapids space for private events of 6 to 50 guests, and sells pre-order grazing boxes, meal kits, sandwich platters, and baked goods for pickup.
The business is operated without any disclosed outside capital, parent company, or external ownership. Technology infrastructure is intentionally minimal: the public website runs on Wix, consumer pre-orders are fulfilled through a ToastTab storefront, and outreach is concentrated on organic social media (Instagram/Facebook) and direct inquiry. The core "platform" is the founders' culinary talent, brand storytelling, and a shared home-based venue that doubles as a catering kitchen, pop-up dining space, and private event location — not a digital product or SaaS layer.
Go-to-market is hybrid: an event-driven acquisition motion (ticketed themed pop-ups drive awareness and community), a sales-led motion (custom proposals for corporate and wedding clients), and a direct-to-consumer motion (ToastTab pre-orders and pickup). Pricing is quote-based for catering and venue rentals, unit-based for grazing boxes and pre-order items, and ticket-based for pop-ups. The customer base is segmented across corporate, wedding/celebration, private host, social celebration, and individual consumer use cases, with no disclosed enterprise anchor accounts. Geographic reach is concentrated in Grand Rapids and surrounding Michigan communities, with travel fees for events outside that core area.
