Commercial Kitchen Consultancy
For the unsure buyer, we can provide an independent, client-side commercial kitchen consultancy service that uses our wealth of experience to build a project from the ground up.
The team members have practised in the commercial catering industry for 35 years, allowing us the insight to impart specialist knowledge on all styles of venue. We prepare drawings, plans and specifications, as well as putting the final proposal through the relevant feasibility and program tests, all to ensure it’s fully comprehensive, realistic and ready to be put out to tender for the most competitive price.
Tender Preparation
As part of our kitchen consultancy service we present a number of informed recommendations and options to the client, supported by a myriad of successful past projects. Based on variables ranging from venue type and capacity to aesthetics and even future maintenance requirements, this service applies to end users, architects, commercial developers and councils, whose expertise lay elsewhere than commercial kitchen design and specification.
Our Account Managers bring nearly 42 years of cumulative experience to the table in specialist fields. Combining this team of industry specialists with an in-house design department, each client is assured that their project is being taken care of by a specialist with the ability to design, supply and install a fully-functioning commercial kitchen.
Although our service differs from one client to another (depending on their business type, expertise and the project’s individual requirements), we offer a six-stage support program as a matter of course.
