Our mentor, Arun Kumar Basak, is the founding member of the organization. After spending almost 12 years at different managerial positions in multiple hotels, he founded the company in the year 1994. It started as a catering company with no fixed employees at that time. The company has seen many changes over the years and Mr. Basak has accepted them and implemented them in the company in terms of customer expectations, cuisine modernization, food décor and design etc.
About Us
About Us
Orion Caterer
Orion Caterer was established in 1994, when Mr. Arun Kumar Basak decided to utilize his experience in the hospitality industry into a business idea for his own city. Mr. Basak, had served many roles in multiple hotels including the Oberoi Palace, Kashmir. This exposure helped him set up his own catering business in Kolkata.
With almost no marketing efforts, this business ran as is and survived with organic customer growth till the year 2015. At this point, Mr. Subhojit Basak, assisted in the business and took the business online. Google, Facebook, Urban Company (Then UrbanClap), Justdial, Sulekha, Wedding Bazaar, Wedmegood - Orion had presence everywhere.
Orion stepped into the rings of Wedding Planning, which is a more competitive market and gained considerable success in that. The catering unit remains the same and is unaltered in terms of its way of working, food quality, personal attention to details, customer-deva-bhava attitude and its love for innovating new items and stepping into new cuisines. Although we have modernized our business to keep up with the fast paced industry, we still harbor traditional ways of working since catering requires both optimization and deep understanding of cultural aspects.
