Organising a corporate event in Manchester? Whether it’s a team-building lunch, a product launch, an end-of-year celebration or a networking event, one thing can make or break your guests’ experience — the food.
Choosing the right catering is about more than just feeding people. It’s about creating atmosphere, building connection, and delivering a lasting impression. That’s where hiring a pizza van for your corporate event really shines.
Why Pizza Vans Are Perfect for Corporate Catering
At Woodfired Pizza Bar, we’ve served fresh, wood fired pizza at events across Greater Manchester — and there’s a reason we’re a go-to choice for companies large and small.
🍕 1. Fresh, Fast and Delicious
Our pizzas are hand-stretched, topped with high-quality ingredients, and cooked in a traditional wood fired oven at 400°C. Each one is ready in under 90 seconds, meaning you can serve dozens of employees or guests quickly and efficiently.
🎉 2. A Memorable Talking Point
Live cooking adds energy and theatre to your event. Guests love watching their food being made — and pizza straight from the oven is hard to beat.
🥗 3. Inclusive Menus for All Diets
We offer a wide range of menu options, including vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free pizzas. This ensures that no one’s left out, no matter the dietary requirements in your office.
🚚 4. We Come to You – No Kitchen Required
Our self-contained pizza van setup makes it easy to serve events anywhere: outside your office, at a local event space, or even in a car park. We’ve catered events in central Manchester, Salford Quays, Trafford Park, and across South Lancashire.
Perfect for a Wide Range of Corporate Events
- Team Appreciation Lunches: Treat your staff to something special with freshly fired pizza on-site.
- Product Launches: Make your event feel less “stiff” and more engaging with casual food that everyone loves.
- Company Anniversaries: Celebrate milestones with artisan pizza and relaxed vibes.
- Networking Evenings: Food trucks encourage movement and socialising in a way sit-down meals don’t.
- Academic or Charity Events: Our setup is ideal for university open days, community fairs and public sector events.
Why Choose a Local, Independent Pizza Van?
We’re based in Preston and typically serve corporate events within a 20-mile radius, including central Manchester. Working with a local business means better communication, more flexibility, and faster setup times. We’ve built long-term relationships with businesses, schools and local authorities across the region.
Our goal? To make your corporate catering effortless. You tell us where and when — we’ll bring the oven, the team, the ingredients and the great atmosphere.
How it Works
- Initial enquiry: We’ll chat about your event size, date and location.
- Menu planning: Choose your pizzas or let us create a balanced menu to suit everyone.
- On the day: We arrive, set up, and serve piping-hot pizzas to your team or guests. Easy.
