caterer

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'his line of business?' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'one able to retrace' is the wordplay.
'retrace' anagrams to 'CATERER'.
Though, I am not sure how the anagram is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for caterer that I've seen before include "Person who supplies food for social events" , "One providing food and drink" , "Someone who provides food and service" , "Provider of food/drink" , "Purveyor" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
