Cafe Linen In Isle of Dogs On The Morning Round

Yes — Isle of Dogs sits on the E14 round, 7 days, 12.6 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Millwall, Cubitt Town and Greenwich — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• The driver knows the streets around Mudchute, Greenwich and Deptford — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is reading a map on your doorstep.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Isle of Dogs is only 12.6 miles out.

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

• Small sites go on the same E14 round — so you are not paying for a dedicated trip into Isle of Dogs.
• 89 cafes around E14 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. The two sit on one invoice and one round.

• Hire — we own the stock, replace it as it wears and keep the par count topped up.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left Isle of Dogs, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hired glass cloths and tea towels, own-branded aprons on wash-only.

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 — a second shortage is a counting error, and we correct it.
• Most Isle of Dogs cafes are not short of linen overall — the weekly total is fine; the weekend distribution is not.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Isle of Dogs in December is not Isle of Dogs in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same E14 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — one account covers both sides of the counter.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — all available on the same account, hire or wash-only.
• 112 restaurants around E14 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

Before you open, because that is how the E14 round is ordered. 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 Mudchute because that is where the delay actually happens.
• 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. A cycle built for table linen leaves them behind.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — the programme is chosen for them, not inherited.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — past a point, heat bonds the protein to the cloth.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a Isle of Dogs cafe buying aprons three times a year is paying for a bad cycle, not for wear.

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 — there is no cost to finding out what it would look like.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — so there is never a morning in Isle of Dogs with nothing clean.
