Jeff has consulted in a leadership role for headliner events such as Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits, as well as private events including the Subaru National Business Conference and the Kia Cash Bash. He is an integral part of the leadership team and is steadily determined to execute flawless events and create trends, rather than just follow them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fdffea651089318d8442127/1613085971174-YES9X5KSW9MHDGPV6M4P/Richard+Nix+Headshot.jpg Our Team Richard Nix Richard Nix was not only raised in St. Louis, but raised in catering. His Father, Richard Nix, Sr., started the company in 1966, with his wife, Anita. The second generation joined the family business in 1988 and Nix officially took over from his Father in 1992. He’s been growing the company ever since. Over the years, under Nix’s leadership and progressive-thinking, Butler’s Pantry has evolved into more than a catering company – hospitality group is a more appropriate label. With over 40 full-time employees, nearly 200 part-timers, 5 brands, 4 exclusive venues, and 40+ preferred venues, Butler’s Pantry has become the leader in catering, dining & entertaining in St. Louis. Butler’s Pantry has been at the helm of many significant events over the years: the 1984 World Series party under the Arch, the 1999 visit of Pope John Paul II, the 2008 BMW Golf Championship, the U.S. Senior Open, the Mayor’s Ball (catered by Butler’s Pantry for more than a decade), the re-opening of the iconic Gateway Arch and the Great Forest Park Balloon Race, to name a few. In fact, after 30+ years of catering for the iconic Great Forest Park Balloon Race, Nix is now a partner in this St. Louis 47-year family tradition. A vital ingredient of the company culture at Butler’s Pantry and a passion for Nix personally, is giving back to the community. Nix has spent 10 years on the St. Louis Children’s Hospital Development Board and several years on the Board of Directors for the Mercantile Library. Currently he serves on the Boards of COCA, Boys & Girls Club, Royal Bank and The Muny. Additionally, he gives countless hours and donations to so many other deserving organizations. https://www.innovativehospitalityconsulting.com/services daily 0.75 2024-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fdffea651089318d8442127/1612118412284-UV85GBDZM5I9QQPMZVLC/Services.png Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fdffea651089318d8442127/1613092660892-4A2XTKZ419WYH5FKJJX7/scott-graham-5fNmWej4tAA-unsplash.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fdffea651089318d8442127/1613085681728-RVRUE9OR2SQ4AKB3Y3VC/Virtual+Production+Shot.jpg Services https://www.innovativehospitalityconsulting.com/contact-us daily 0.75 2021-02-12 https://www.innovativehospitalityconsulting.com/home daily 1.0 2024-12-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fdffea651089318d8442127/1613097888710-TLDLAZJYYSZ87WE4RWGB/sever.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fdffea651089318d8442127/1613097915720-FYPP4QSW9JLRU23N7TQH/hotel-bell.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fdffea651089318d8442127/1613098125838-2SZGGEVL1I092FEJL2K8/graphic-design-2.jpg Home
