Select Service Catering was founded by Jon Hall and Colin McGinn after Jon worked in the catering industry and found an area of improvement in the industry. Both partners were raised by entrepreneurial mothers who taught them various aspects of the business. Jon has 15 years in the food and beverage industry while also running a charity. Colin has worked in a variety of IT fields and owned other small businesses. Both are motivated by the idea that they can have a direct impact on the quality of service.
