Catering & On-Set Services
Professional catering and craft services for film productions across France.
Production catering keeps cast and crew fed across long shooting days.

Crews enjoy top meals that reflect the French care for good ingredients and skilled cooking.
We arrange catering scaled to your crew size and shooting schedule, sourcing skilled caterers across Paris, Lyon, and regional France. Our team builds menus that show off French cooking while meeting dietary needs from around the world.

On Location
Production catering and craft services across France
Feeding a French crew well is not a perk — it is a basic expectation. We source caterers who know that lunch in Lyon means a proper bouchon-grade plate. A Provençal shoot gains from market produce pulled that morning from Apt or Carpentras, and a Bordeaux schedule deserves regional wines paired with ease for wrap. Menus rotate across the shoot week and cover vegetarian, vegan, halal, kosher, and allergen-flagged crew without setting anyone apart. Each meal arrives on time, whether the truck sits at La Cité du Cinéma or a remote Dordogne château.
Craft tables stay stocked with the espresso, viennoiseries, and seasonal fruit French crews count on between setups. Our caterers travel the whole country — beach units along the Côte d'Azur, mountain shoots in the Alps, urban exteriors in the Marais — with the refrigeration, sanitation, and HACCP records French health inspectors expect. Cost sits in a clear €15–€30 per-head range with full transparency, so your line producer locks the catering budget once and watches it hold from camera test through the wrap party.
