LoCo Tampa Bay is a locally owned catering marketplace of restaurants and caterers. We are passionate about putting the power back in the hands of our community. We believe in supporting businesses that invest where we live, not national giants that take millions out to benefit investors.
Imagine: More money (millions) circulating here in Tampa Bay, supporting local restaurants, customers getting 4x more cash back on catering orders VS. the national competitor , referrals, drivers, and even cancer patients in need all benefiting financially. That’s the LoCo difference
We believe it’s time communities come together to compete against the large venture backed corporate companies. Currently our largest competitor is ez-ily taking $150 to $200 million out of communities across the country and $1 to $2 million out of Tampa Bay every year. Isn’t it time we support each other and keep our hard earned money home? We have the technology, experience and tools to do it NOW. We just need the community to spread the word and support the service while getting handsomely rewarded ($$). Fair enough? Let’s go do it!
