Cafe Linen In Brixton Hill On The Morning Round

Yes — Brixton Hill sits on the SW2 round, 7 days, 10.4 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Clapham Park, Lambeth and Tulse Hill — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around Brixton, Streatham Hill and Herne Hill — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Brixton Hill is only 10.4 miles out.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same SW2 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — because the menu grew.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — added as lines, not as a new agreement.
• 104 restaurants around SW2 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

That is the point of putting Brixton Hill on the SW2 round rather than a separate trip. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — it goes on the round sheet, not into a delivery window.
• Timed around Brixton and the traffic that comes with 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. On a general cycle they build up and whites dull within weeks.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — not as the tail end of a kitchen load.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — too hot sets it into the fibre.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — replacement rate is the clearest signal the classification is off.

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

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than locking you into a winter volume you do not use in August.
• 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 Brixton Hill with nothing clean.

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

• Small sites go on the same SW2 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 62 cafes around SW2 are already on it — which is why the timings suit opening rather than check-out.
• 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 — we own the stock, replace it as it wears and keep the par count topped up.
• Wash-only — item for item, never substituted.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hire what nobody sees, keep your own name on what the customer does.

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 Brixton Hill cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Brixton Hill in December is not Brixton Hill in February, and the par count should know that.
