Olive Twist, established in 2007 is a professional, upmarket catering business, with an intensely passionate happy team working together daily to bring delicate, complex flavours and wonderful food experiences to corporate and private clients all around KZN. We have had the pleasure of working on some phenomenal events and welcome any challenge or brief that comes our way, whether it be a 5 course
private dinner party for an intimate family celebration or canapés & cocktails for 1000 corporates at an awards evening. Over the years, our journey has taken us to unique destinations, creative zones & challenging locations all over KZN, which has helped us understand, love and grow with our province. From the rustic Umtamvuna river on the Transkei border to the beating heart of Umlazi, from farms in Notties to working farms surrounded by sugar cane.

We have served and cooked up storms working out of a caravan kitchen, makeshift mobile setups in torrential natal rain, chaotic Durban July kitchen marquees ,vast warehouses, our delivery van, interactive stations, the finest kitchens in Durban's elite homes to the backstage of school halls. We love the venue challenge and the uniqueness that this lends the event and to the development of our menus when we know where we are cooking from and what our client wants.
