Restaurant Supply Should Be About More than Just Selling Equipment
By Kingston Amadan
Over the course of my tenure as a restaurant owner and manager, I've had multiple pieces of equipment fail. Luckily, my equipment supplier has been able to keep things running smoothly in the kitchen by giving me advice on repairs or providing replacement units in a timely fashion. More than that, however, my supplier has helped me to set up my kitchens in such a way that makes food prep easy for my staff, which helps me to get the food out to my customers as quickly and efficiently as possible. For the few years before I formed this business relationship, I just always assumed that people stepping all over each other to get from one station to the next was just an unfortunate cost of doing business in the restaurant industry.
I had no concept of how a kitchen should be properly set up and had simply left things the way they were when I took over my first restaurant all those years ago. At one point, I decided to replace some equipment and contacted a supplier with a good reputation in my area. I thought I would simply make a purchase and wait for it to arrive. When they asked me if I wanted a kitchen evaluation, I thought it couldn't hurt, so I had them come by the restaurant. That phone call changed everything for me.
They showed me how I could set up my kitchen with my existing equipment and streamline all my processes. It made a big difference, one which both my staff and customers immediately noticed. Each time I opened a new restaurant with different kitchen space and equipment requirements, I had them come down to the new location and do the same. My kitchens run as smoothly as ever, and I have my equipment supplier to thank for it.
The thing that impressed me the most was that I had found someone who wanted to work with me, someone who wanted me to succeed and was willing to offer me their expertise in kitchen structure management to get there. I never expected this service to even be available, nor did I have any idea of just how important it is to get your kitchen set up the right way. If you have a kitchen arrangement that makes things difficult for you, I encourage you to contact a qualified restaurant equipment supplier that offers this service. Trust me; you'll be glad you did.
