It’s no secret that the mobile-catering concept has grown significantly in recent years, and all indications point to this trend continuing at a rapid pace. If you enjoy cooking for others and have always had the idea of starting a catering business in the back of your mind, it’s time.

Welcome to Fiero’s Authentic Education class! This exclusive 2 day course will focus on starting your full-service mobile pizza operation. We will cover all aspects of pizza making and production, cooking with fire, ingredients and menu development, skills and techniques, and general best-practice pointers based on your vision or your business. Lunch, snacks and beverages will be supplied!

The course will be led by Fiero’s culinary director, Executive Chef Mark Hopper. Joining him will be key members of our creative and business team. We’ll be cooking with fire and gas in the outdoor space of our Production Facility, so you can learn to cook outdoors in a realistic environment. Additionally, we will be using our test kitchen and dough room for creative conversation, prep and cooking.

*Seating limited to twelve registrants*

You’ll need:

  • Items for notetaking
  • Kitchen shoes (non-slip)
