Cafe Linen In Beddington On The Morning Round

Yes — Beddington sits on the CR0 round, 7 days, 14.7 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Waddon, Broad Green and West Croydon — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around Waddon — which matters more at seven in the morning than it does at eleven.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, which is what 14.7 miles buys you.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same CR0 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — the round does not change when the kitchen opens.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — added as lines, not as a new agreement.
• 8 restaurants around CR0 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

Yes — the CR0 round is sequenced by opening time. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — not left to whenever the van happens to reach Beddington.
• Timed around Waddon so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
• If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

It is the wash, not the cloth. Run on the wrong programme they accumulate rather than lift.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — rather than whatever the machine was doing before.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — overheating fixes the stain instead of lifting it.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — if stock is replaced every few months, the cycle is wrong.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — Beddington in February and Beddington in July are different businesses, and the account should say so.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — the count and the quote commit you to nothing.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — so there is never a morning in Beddington with nothing clean.

No minimum, on any line. A single-site independent cafe in Beddington is an ordinary account for us.

• Small sites go on the same CR0 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• 5 cafes around CR0 are already on it — so the round is built for counters, not bolted on to a hotel run.
• Volume changes are expected — the account flexes rather than holding you to a floor.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

• Hire — stock, replacement and par management are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left Beddington, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of cafes do both — branding matters on the apron, rarely on the tea towel behind the counter.

Tell your account manager and a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — we reset it against what you actually used, not what was estimated at setup.
• Most Beddington cafes are not short of linen overall — the weekly total is fine; the weekend distribution is not.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — rather than handled as emergencies.
