Our group
Founded in Guangzhou in 2012, Shihua Brothers Catering Group is an integrated food-service group with digitally enabled group catering at its core. Its “6+1” full-chain service framework connects day-to-day meal operations with related businesses to offer integrated catering services.
The group addresses the catering needs of public institutions, universities, major enterprises and business events. Its approach recognises differences in dining settings, service arrangements and coordination, bringing professional roles, service standards and project collaboration together around catering operations.
The full-chain business spans food supply, procurement and distribution; restaurant brand operations and strategy; kitchen equipment and workflows; catering data research; and talent development. Each of the seven business sectors has its own identity. They also connect ingredients, kitchens, dining spaces and teams, with group catering at the centre of meal-service organisation.
Professionalism, safety, health, environmental responsibility, integrity and shared success guide the group’s approach to business. Its management framework combines people-centred practices, standardisation, professional expertise, digitalisation and coordinated resources. Shihua Brothers Academy connects talent development and shared experience with the continuity of service standards.

How we manage
Five management principles address people, working standards, professional skills, business information and resource coordination. Professional roles and shared standards connect team collaboration, daily operations and talent development.
01
People-centred
Consider diners’ service needs alongside the needs of the team. Communication, collaboration and staff development connect service standards with the experience of the people involved.
02
Standardised
Use shared working standards to connect roles and establish a common reference for service organisation and coordination. Talent development and shared experience help pass on service methods.
03
Professional
Organise food services through professional roles, recognising the knowledge, skills and collaboration each role requires. The Academy supports staff development and the continuity of service standards.
04
Digital
Use business information and catering data research to support coordination and management judgement. Digitalisation concerns how information is recorded, understood and shared, keeping technology connected with practical food-service work.
05
Coordinated resources
Coordinate resources across food supply, procurement, distribution, kitchen workflows and on-site service. This principle connects business roles and shared standards in support of catering operations.
