Passion and Courage

Hizon’s Catering was actually born inside Ms. Hizon’s kitchen. It used to be a small food business meant to help friends have great celebrations. But since her family was growing, Ms. Hizon felt the need to increase the family’s income to make ends meet. It was when she decided to take things a notch higher and turn this small business of hers into a full-blown catering business. Of course, she did the cooking by herself at first. She has always been passionate about food, so she actually had a great time not only preparing food but also conjuring signature recipes that the company is still using to this very day.

Determination

Eventually, Hizon’s Catering was able to get the attention of more and more people. However, instead of being complacent, Ms. Hizon decided to further improve their services. One of them was the establishment of their own design and styling departments to take care of their event styling needs. She also ensured that the company would follow standard operating procedures and boost the company’s efficiency. Food safety officers also came on board to ensure that safety procedures would always be followed in order to guarantee food quality.
