The WA Perth Zoo is looking for a commercial caterer and functions operator to realise the full potential of the Perth Zoo Food & Beverage (F&B) Strategy across its South Perth site.

The F&B retail offerings available include:

1. A grab and go market (main café area, operating every day, includes cold drink, ice cream, snacks, ready prepared fast foods).

2. Expresso and drinks bar (main café area, operating every day, providing click & collect service for café, hot beverages & bar facilities).

3. Click & collect café (main café area, operating most days, allowing order ahead for a plated food offering).

4. Front entrance coffee and snacks (Wild Art Café, operating every day, providing coffee, ice cream and snacks).

5. BBQ & beers snack outlet (Rhino viewing hut, operating in peak periods, providing soft drink & ice cream, with capability to serve BBQ & beers for special events).

6. Soft drink and ice cream outlet (at existing Galapagos Tortoise facility, operating mid & peak periods).

7. Mobile concessions (operating at peak periods e.g, sausage grill, ice cream, popcorn, cold beverages).

The functions and events component of the business opportunity is considered a critical element of the F&B revenue stream. Function activity will respond to as diverse a market as possible, with the new functions centre providing a sophisticated and contemporary offering, augmenting all of the outdoor function spaces across Perth Zoo’s site.
