Garnish

Garnish is a Maltese corporate catering business built for offices. Instead of private parties or weddings, it supplies the meals that companies provide for their staff: shared team breakfasts and lunches, a platform that lets employees choose their own food within a company budget, and catering for office events from casual Friday drinks to board meetings. For a UK business setting up in Malta, or an international team already based on the island, it is a practical answer to the question of how to feed a workforce without a canteen.

The firm sits in our directory of catering companies in Malta, alongside caterers for weddings, parties and private events. Its own message is simple: one catering partner, three solutions, and as little administration as possible for the person organising.

Who Garnish is and how it started

The company began in 2020 with Fortify Meals, an idea to make healthy eating easier during busy working days. Offices soon started asking for catered lunches for their employees, and found the arrangements difficult to run internally. Garnish was created in response, as a corporate catering brand bringing variety and convenience to workplace dining across Malta. It is run by two co-founders, Aaron and Mauro, and the company name behind the site is Maar Foods Limited.

Today Garnish serves many of Malta's larger corporate teams as their regular office catering partner. The sector mix on the island is wide, from iGaming operators to banks and professional firms, and our guides to iGaming in Malta and the financial services sector explain why so many sizeable offices cluster here and why staff perks matter in a competitive hiring market.

TeamShare: shared meals for the office

Garnish TeamShare is the core catering service, built for recurring team days or one-off celebrations. Every meal is prepared fresh in the Garnish kitchen by its own chefs and culinary team, with no third-party vendors involved, so the standard stays consistent from one delivery to the next. Pricing is fixed per person, and a single consolidated invoice arrives at the end of the month.

There are two options. Breakfast to Share costs €7.50 per person excluding VAT, with a minimum team of 10. It pairs a savoury item, such as a bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese, a baguette or a brioche bun with brisket, with a sweet one, such as a croissant, pastry, cinnamon roll or a granola and yoghurt cup, across three menu options. Lunch to Share costs €10.00 per person excluding VAT and delivers restaurant-style lunches with rotating themed menus. Typical lunch menus include pasta, rice and barley salads, a Greek salad, and baguettes, wraps and ciabatta filled with chicken Caesar, smoked salmon, grilled halloumi or pork. Vegan alternatives such as falafel wraps and grilled vegetable and tofu baguettes are listed.

TeamShare works best for teams of 15 or more, though smaller teams can ask about options. Pricing is based on an average team size agreed at the start, and it can be adjusted if you give at least 48 hours' notice before the next delivery. Themed menus rotate weekly, and clients are welcome to suggest themes or cultural preferences.

Getting started takes four steps: discuss your needs and choose a plan, let the team build rotating menus and delivery schedules, receive fresh meals on time, and pay one monthly invoice. Garnish pitches TeamShare at company leaders who want predictable costs, HR teams who want to raise office attendance in hybrid setups, and employees who want a reason to enjoy their days in the office.

Why offices choose a catering partner

The reasoning behind the service is practical. Organising food for a team normally means coordinating orders, chasing suppliers and handling invoices, and Garnish takes that load away so the coordinator only has to choose the days that suit the office. Four benefits run through its material: less administration, better attendance on in-office days for hybrid teams, support for employee wellbeing through fresh and varied food that suits different diets, and tight control of costs, with transparent prices, optional budgets and predictable monthly totals.

The breakfast menus show the range. Option A pairs bagels, such as smoked salmon with cream cheese and cucumber or grilled mushroom with avocado pate, with croissants. Option B offers baguettes, such as bacon, brie and spinach or mortadella with pistachio and mozzarella, with pastries including pain au chocolat and cinnamon rolls. Option C offers brioche buns filled with beef brisket, cheddar and caramelised onion or grilled peppers and halloumi, with granola cups, seed bars and protein balls. Lunch menus follow a similar pattern, with three options each combining salads and a selection of sandwiches or wraps to share.

Garnish also publishes a free practical guide to introducing office meal perks, covering the evidence on morale, ways to avoid admin overload and checklists for using meals to help keep staff.

FlexLunch: choice for employees, control for the company

Garnish FlexLunch is an ordering platform for employers who prefer to give staff freedom over what they eat. The company sets the meal perks and budgets, and employees order individually from several curated catering partners. Garnish then delivers one consolidated, labelled drop to the office and issues one monthly invoice. This suits larger or mixed teams with a range of diets and tastes, because each person picks their own meal rather than sharing a single menu.

The same approach is behind the Meal Perk Pilot Programme, a trial route for companies that want to test meal benefits before committing, and a Budget Calculator on the website helps organisers estimate monthly costs. Those planning a move to Malta with staff can find broader context in our Malta relocation guide, and remote teams will find the digital nomad guide useful when thinking about coworking days and team meet-ups.

Garnish Events and seasonal office experiences

Garnish Events covers office celebrations, board meetings and Friday gatherings, from casual to formal. The pitch is customised solutions, transparent pricing and reliable delivery without last-minute surprises, so that the host can focus on their guests. The photos show buffet-style catering at corporate gatherings and workshop and training events.

The business also runs themed office experiences. The Post-Summer Office Ritual, available from 17 September to 31 October 2026 for teams of 12 or more across Malta, delivers a box of 12 artisan croissants at €36 including VAT, around €3 per person. Sweet choices are chocolate and hazelnut, pistachio and crema pasticceria, and savoury choices are smoked salmon and cream cheese, rucola with Parma ham and Grana, and tomato and mozzarella. Each selection needs at least six croissants, bookings are confirmed within 24 hours, and the kitchen needs at least three working days' notice. A Pancake Station event was held at a client office in February 2026.

If your event needs more than food, an event planner such as 242.group can handle production and logistics alongside a caterer.

Where Garnish works and how to plan

The directory record places Garnish at Triq il-Parsott in Mosta, in the middle of the island, and the firm serves offices across Malta. Mosta is close to Mdina and Rabat, so our Mdina guide is handy if you are visiting for business and want to see something of the island afterwards. Visitors travelling from the UK can check flights to Malta and the where to stay in Malta overview before arriving.

Dietary needs are handled by agreement: tell the team when you book, and suitable items are labelled on delivery. Prices on the menus are shown excluding VAT for the team meals and including VAT for the croissant boxes, so confirm which applies to your order.

Garnish offers a free guide on implementing office meal perks, and a newsletter with monthly themed events. To discuss a plan, use the VisitMalta.co.uk enquiry form on this page and we will pass your message to Garnish, who can arrange a call with a co-founder.
