Orlando's F&B market is driven by two forces that operate at enormous scale: the Orange County Convention Center — at 7 million square feet, one of the largest in the country — and the Walt Disney World and Universal Resort hotel complex, which runs continuous banquet and event catering across dozens of convention-grade properties. International Drive connects both ecosystems with a dense corridor of tourist-facing restaurants, catering companies, and food service operations that need kitchen and server staff throughout the year. When OCCC convention seasons peak (January–March and September–November), staffing demand across the metro surges across all three zones simultaneously.

Yes. The OCCC at 7 million square feet is one of the top three convention centers in the US, and its events require significant temporary food service crews — servers, bussers, kitchen prep, and bar service staff — for attendee dining, exhibitor events, and break service across multiple days. GigSmart fills these roles same-day or in advance from Orlando's qualified local worker pool. Coverage extends to Kissimmee, Lake Mary, and Winter Garden.
