Are your rising costs really out of your control? Are tariffs, inflation, and supply chain chaos just the new normal, or are there ways to get ahead of them? In this episode, I bring on Clint Elkins to dig into what’s really happening with food costs, supply challenges, and the hidden factors that set your prices—plus how to spot trends before they hit your bottom line. You’ll hear how natural disasters, labor markets, and even global events ripple through catering and events, and learn fresh ways to adapt, save, and thrive even in volatile times.

Listen to this new episode for insights on controlling costs, navigating unpredictable markets, and strategies venues and caterers can use to stay profitable in a changing world.
