Fulfilling the need for kitchen equipment hire in the London Southampton areas

In this time of cheer when every company is planning their festive season and end of year event, economic constraints mean that in many instances the event have to be held "in house" or at a hall or similar venue in order to reduce the costs.

Nevertheless it is not all doom and gloom and there are many such places where all that is required are various bits of equipment on a one off basis to enable catering. And here is where Allens Catering in London and Southampton can serve you.

Obviously everything will depend on the number of guests and the room in the kitchen but everything imaginable in the way of kitchen equipment hire is available.

Consider an event. A company with 45 staff plus another 20 temporary staff decide to have a function that will include a dinner dance. They have contacted a local town hall which will let them use their facilities but everything that they require must be hired or brought in exte
ally.

An event manager is approached to organise the event with the idea that the menu will include Roast Duck or a Chicken Korma all to be cooked in house. Starters and Pudding can be purchased out but coffee and tea plus a cheese board should similarly be done at the event. She immediately springs into action and inspecting the kitchen of the hall realizes that the Kitchen facilities are inadequate for the task at hand.

She rounds up her master chef and together they approach Allens hire and rent the following: Turbofan ovens, gas ranges, hot holding cupboards, two hundred cup coffee percolators, Bain Maries ,

In addition they are book glasses, a Portable Bar, Table linen, plates and cutlery plus candelabra and the list goes on.

Fortunately for them they have booked in time and Allens Hire is able to supply their entire list. As arranged in adequate time the entire order is assembled at Allens Hire premises and delivered to the venue where the Chef goes about preparing the menu while the event manager brings in her staff to set and dress the tables and prepare the event.

The event goes off without a hitch and the next day the temporary staff hired to serve in the kitchen return to clear up, wash the dishes and repack everything into the delivery boxes. When ready Allens delivery truck arrives and collects checking everything off and within a couple of days the deposit less the few breakages is returned to the company.

The3 simple fact is that it does not matter whether one is catering for an event for 20 or 2,000 whatever kitchen or catering equipment is required can be easily hired. This obviously saves on ownership cost and it is very convenient.

So when next planning a major event consider the advantages of renting the equipment and catering for the event in house. Despite the seemingly endless small details required, which and event organiser will do for you, the resultant event will be just as successful and cost a whole lot less.
