Formed in 1946, Restaurant & Catering Queensland is a not-for-profit industry peak association made up of food service businesses solely for the purpose of protecting and serving the interests of the industry and the viability and profitability of those enterprises operating within the industry.

The organisation is a registered union of employers under the Industrial Relations Act and operates predominately in six regional centres in the state in addition to being a key stakeholder in the industry’s peak national body, Restaurant & Catering Australia.

The association is governed by a board of directors elected annually from the associations membership, none of whom receive any payment for their services, with all funds generated being applied back to industry initiatives, member benefits and services.

Any member is entitled to a say in the direction of the association, the services it provides and can stand for nomination to the board and to be involved in representing member businesses’ needs regionally.
