Catering to your aircraft in Monrovia.
GLMR is a sea-level city airfield with a short apron and a warm climate, so every tray is packed for heat and for a small galley. Crew get a plan they can follow: chilled, oven, sauce apart, re-plate.
We know the galley, the diet card and the 5 a.m. re-plate — because we lived them. So we built the caterer we always wished we could call.
Fourteen years on VIP and head-of-state cabins. Can plate for twelve in a G650 galley and still land it hot.
The one who reads every diet card twice. If it says no cross-contact, it means no cross-contact.
Answers at 5 a.m. when the leg moved overnight. Same-day swaps are her love language.
Monrovia and Montserrado County give a private jet menu its character: the Atlantic supplies barracuda, snapper and shrimp, the market gardens supply cassava leaf, sweet potato, plantain and hot pepper. Our inflight menu for Spriggs Payne turns these local specialities into private jet food that travels well: palm butter and rice portioned per seat, grilled fish chilled with its pepper sauce apart, fried plantain re-plated on board.
The galley is small and the apron is warm, so each dish is chosen for how it finishes in the cabin. Private jet platters carry tropical fruit and cold cuts; gourmet inflight meals lean on stewed greens, jollof-style rice and spiced chicken that go into the oven and come out plated; private jet snacks are plantain chips, roasted peanuts and coconut sweets. Local specialities of Montserrado County, packed for the aircraft rather than the restaurant.

Spriggs Payne sits at 25 ft on the Monrovia coast, a city airfield where the rains decide what is fresh and what is not. Private jet catering here follows that calendar: pepper soup, grilled fish, cassava and tropical fruit, packed for the galley you actually fly. Our team of former VIP flight attendants handles inflight catering and in-flight catering for GLMR, plus aviation catering for business aviation catering sorties and executive jet catering rotations. For state visits we also run diplomatic flight catering, and cabin crew meals are ordered with the trip.
Executives flying into Spriggs Payne tend to travel with a tight agenda and a specific galley. Our private jet chef builds a bespoke menu around that: business jet catering with local fish, corporate jet catering with cassava and greens, VIP flight catering plated for the seat, charter flight catering sealed for the leg, luxury inflight catering without ornament.
State aircraft landing at GLMR need a kitchen that respects protocol: menu cleared before cooking, sealed packaging, one point of contact. We handle government flight catering, head of state flight catering, VIP aviation catering and state visit aircraft catering the same quiet way.
Dietary requests at Monrovia are handled as a kitchen procedure. Liberian stews often hide fish stock, shrimp paste, palm oil blends and groundnut, so allergen free, vegan and gluten free dishes are cooked on separate boards and sealed. Kosher and halal meals are ordered ahead and arrive in closed packaging, marked by seat number. Special meals and kids meals go on the same order as the rest.
A sheet per guest. Separate boards, separate boxes.
Sealed, certificate in the same box.
Their own menu, nothing to cut at altitude.
Vegan, low-carb, light — composed, never compromised.
When the cabin is empty, crew meals are the whole order. We pack flight crew meals as boxes marked CREW, pilot meals as separate dishes for captain and first officer, and crew catering on request, billed with the trip. Cockpit meals stay easy to eat; crew meal boxes close flat; different meals for pilots are never mixed on one tray.
At Monrovia we deliver to the general aviation terminal or straight to the aircraft, as your handling agent allows. FBO catering means one contact, one invoice, one handover; catering delivery to the FBO and ground handling catering run on the same sheet as handling agent catering.
GLMR is a compact city airfield, and the aircraft type decides how the load goes on: a light jet takes trays through the cabin door, a larger cabin may need a high loader at the sill. For galley catering we check door height, galley layout and oven count before cooking. Airside catering delivery runs through your handling agent, and aircraft provisioning follows the same list whether the aircraft is a turboprop or a long-range jet.
Mention it when you orderCertified, inspected, with cold-chain records filed against your trip.
Whichever terminal you park at, handover is at the aircraft, on your slot.

GLMR sits on the Monrovia peninsula, a general aviation airfield far smaller than Roberts International. Its FBO services and ground handling services serve operators who want a city arrival, and airport catering fits that scale.
The ramp at Spriggs Payne sees corporate and charter traffic more than airline flow, a pattern typical of a business aviation hub in West Africa. Executive jet catering, business aviation catering and aviation catering sit alongside diplomatic flight catering for visiting delegations, and inflight catering and in-flight catering are handed over with cabin crew meals when ordered.
Liberia applies its own import rules to food arriving with an aircraft, so we advise sourcing locally where possible. Your handling agent confirms what must be declared; food cooked in Monrovia and handed over at the FBO avoids most questions.
Average rating from the cabin crew and pilots we cater for.
“On this departure from GLMR, 7 passengers had chosen mushroom risotto and a green salad, and a revised passenger count needed to be reflected in the order. With several people involved, The Galley Girls kept the sauces and delivery arrangements together in a concise order update. Knowing where the sandwiches were packed meant the crew could begin the relevant checks as soon as the order arrived. I want a private jet catering company to understand cabin service sequence, and this order gave us a useful starting point.”
“I wanted grilled salmon with a lemon dressing for 10 guests at MLW, packed sensibly for a cabin team dealing with a small galley worktop. Instead of asking us to improvise, The Galley Girls explained how the starters could be arranged during service. It made a difference to have the desserts ready without cluttering the galley work area during preparation. When comparing private jet catering companies, I would look closely at cabin service sequence after this experience.”
“Good preparation made the difference at Spriggs Payne Airport, where 4 guests expected yoghurt pots and fresh berries despite limited fridge space. I gave The Galley Girls our storage brief and asked for the snack boxes to arrive in shallow trays. My search for "private jet catering near me" led to a practical conversation about galley preparation. We placed the sauces in their planned storage area without first having to reorganise all the catering boxes.”
Ask about price by describing the aircraft first. A galley with a single oven limits what we plate, which also shapes the final quote. Monrovia seafood changes with the catch, so we confirm the line items with you.
An empty-cabin repositioning into Monrovia rarely needs a full menu, which keeps the order light. We take requests day and night, and last-minute orders are handled; seasonal produce is the only thing that may change the plan.
With crew on duty and the clock running, nobody wants a tray held at the gate. Local Liberian ingredients avoid most import questions; anything brought in from abroad should be declared through your handling agent before the slot.
Season matters at GLMR: the wet weather window can push a departure, and carried food suffers on a warm apron. Ordering locally keeps the meal fresh on whatever slot you eventually get.
Charter price and catering price are separate. If your Spriggs Payne departure has two meals in the air, tell us and we pack them in distinct, labelled boxes, ordered and invoiced on their own.
Tail, pax and diets — a flight attendant takes it from there, day or night.
