Whether it was bringing the vibrancy of fresh food markets to residential home settings or hosting a cooking contest that unearthed new and exciting dishes for customers, the Hospitality team’s inspired efforts never stopped this year. We recap the 2024/25 financial year and the fresh, innovations the team brought to the table.
Community and competition
To tap into the sense of community that farmers markets offer, the hospitality team introduced its own roving fresh food market stall that visited various Residential Aged Care homes. The attractive displays of fresh fruits and vegetables provided customers with the opportunity to sample in-season foods, and the quality ingredients used in daily meals. Juniper Hospitality staff were on hand at events to talk everything dining with customers and offer freshly made juice and berry smoothies.
Just as importantly, the market stalls fostered a sense of community and wellbeing for customers and Juniper staff.
Innovation was not only on the table for customers to enjoy, but also for Juniper chefs to demonstrate in the kitchen with the first-ever DINE Masterclass Competition. Chefs from around the state took part in the exciting race against-the-clock cooking challenge. Covered by Channel 10 News, competing chefs prepared a main dish and a dessert or morning tea from a fruit and vegetable stand, pantry items and a mystery protein box revealed just prior to the cook-off.
A huge success, the event delivered new taste sensations and opportunities for customers to serve as competition judges.
