Catering equipment that has to survive the van: a field kitchen and cold chain, chafing dishes and a buffet line, a mobile bar, coffee-break kit and banquet furniture. Everything here is specified to be loaded, driven, run away from a mains supply and loaded again the same night.
A catering company — this catering equipment all travels: field kitchen, cold chain, buffet line, mobile bar, coffee station and the boxes it moves in.
Yes — send the maximum sitting and the menu and we'll size cooking, cold holding, the buffet line and the tableware to the peak.
Those sit under Event. If a job needs both — a wedding, say — we quote across the two pages rather than pretending one covers it.
Both, and the specification changes between them. A restaurant buys for a fixed kitchen — mains gas, a plumber on call, a loading bay. A caterer needs the same dish out of a marquee on a generator. Catering equipment suppliers usually list the fixed version; as a catering equipment supplier we quote the portable one and say what it needs to run.
Outside catering equipment has to travel, work without a fixed supply, and go back in the van still hot. Restaurant catering equipment is built for a fixed installation instead. As a catering equipment supplier we quote the mobile versions — gas, battery and insulated — for anything leaving the building.
