We Can't Live Without Catering Suppliers

Most businesses which provide catering services will source their equipment and consumables from a specialist catering equipment suppliers. Although there are plenty of shops on the high street which offer catering supplies at seemingly competitive prices, a bespoke catering equipment store will be able to offer their customers an unparalleled level of service. For example, most customers will be able to set up an account giving them credit on certain items, as well as offering considerable savings on bulk orders.

 

They also tend to stock all the latest catering equipment such as commercial coffee machines, industrial ovens and the new fangled energy saving induction hobs. The prices for such equipment is also very competitive and if required, finance plans are also available which enable you to pay for the equipment in a number of small, easy payments stretched out over several months or even a few years. Many items are available from a catering suppliers long before they are available on the high street. For example, most of us saw our first domestic microwave oven in the early eighties, but they were available commercially some thirty years earlier in the mid fifties!

 

Catering equipment suppliers will provide almost everything you need from crockery and cutlery, pots and pans to fridges and freezers, ovens and hobs. Shopping around for the best price is not only time consuming, it's also not necessary as a good catering supplier will price match for a regular customer. First of all, they'd much rather you shop from them rather than elsewhere, and secondly, they know you've got better things to do with your time than checking the prices of the latest counter top induction hob at a number of suppliers, so they aim to be competitive from the outset.

 

Regardless of whether you run a large restaurant, a small café or a public house, or even a burger van parked on some remote lay by, you'll be reliant on businesses providing catering supplies. They will supply everything you need from polystyrene burger boxes & flat pack pizza boxes to pint glasses in bulk and as many plates a Greek wedding party can get through. In fact the only thing a specialised catering equipment supplier does not provide is a steady stream of reliable staff.

 

Running a successful catering company is all about teamwork; and not just within your own business. Good team work also involves your relationship with your customers and your suppliers, be they catering equipment suppliers or food and drink suppliers.
