Do you struggle with choosing the necessary equipment for your kitchen?
Have you thought about…Your kitchen equipment needs?



To achieve operational efficiency in your kitchen, it’s essential that you choose the right equipment for your menu and customer numbers. This doesn’t need to be expensive and if bought wisely, has the power to significantly increase your margins. The best approach is to work out your budget, decide what you need and what you have room for.

  • When choosing your equipment, consider longevity and reliability to avoid costly breakdowns. Sustainable solutions, although initially may appear expensive, could reduce operational costs in the long run.
  • Don’t be pressured into buying state of the art appliances that aren’t right for your needs. Seek advice from independent sources such as CEDA (Catering Equipment Distributors Association). Attending trade shows such as Hotelympia, Glee and Casual Dining will provide you with an opportunity to see a wide range of equipment in operation.
  • Think about your staffing and skill levels - choosing the right equipment to suit will ensure successful delivery of your menu and a fantastic customer experience. Whatever the case, training is essential and failing to provide it could have a negative impact on your front of house operation.
