The specification defines what is included in your build. We discuss these details with you before preparing the project scope.
Start with your brief
Start with your menu, team and service volume. Equipment dimensions inform preparation zones, refrigeration, storage, bench space and circulation.
Client-supplied appliances can be included by agreement, with specifications confirmed before fit-out.
Platform dimensions, reinforced openings, personnel access, hatches, counters, lift assistance, weather seals and locking points are defined around the intended use and transport requirements.
Discuss insulation, washable wall linings, commercial flooring, stainless steel work surfaces, shelving and cabinetry. The quotation confirms the selected materials and finishes.
Lighting, outlets, electrical provision, sinks, hot water, tanks, waste arrangements and extraction are coordinated with the nominated equipment and site connections.
Exterior colours, signage areas, menu displays, lighting and customer-facing finishes are developed around your identity. Open trading and closed transport configurations are considered together.
Your proposal should identify inclusions, client-supplied items, transport, site works and available documentation. We discuss access, placement and connection requirements before dispatch.
Project-specific checks and certificates should be confirmed in the scope. Local site approvals and food registration are separate requirements.
For brands & agencies
We also manufacture for third-party brands and agencies. From a retail launch to an event activation, we develop spaces around the brand, the audience and the operating brief.
