Corporate Essentials president and CEO Judson Kleinman said: “Acquiring Martin + Fitch marks the start of the most exciting time in our company’s 20-plus-year history.

“Being able to offer full-service catering to New York City and New Jersey offices takes what we currently do to a whole new level.

“We’re going to be doing something with the Martin + Fitch brand that we know offices are looking for. We speak with the people making the food decisions in offices every day – we have a really good feel of what our clients want.”

Following the deal, Corporate Essentials will continue the Martin + Fitch brand with offerings that include a full range of food solutions such as grab-and-go lunch for workplace parties in offices.
