Commercial Linen In Kenley On The Morning Round

Yes — Kenley sits on the CR8 round, 7 days, 18.2 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Purley, Sanderstead and Whyteleafe — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around Kenley and Riddlesdown — 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 Kenley is only 18.2 miles out.

Because cafe soil is chemically different from kitchen soil. 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 Kenley 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 — you are not held to a peak figure through a quiet quarter.
• 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 Kenley with nothing clean.

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

• Small sites go on the same CR8 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 2 cafes around CR8 are already on it — which is why the timings suit opening rather than check-out.
• Volume changes are expected — we adjust rather than hold you to a winter figure.

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 — 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 — a second shortage is a counting error, and we correct it.
• Most Kenley cafes are not short of linen overall — they are short of it on two predictable days, which is a counting problem rather than a volume one.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — we set them ahead rather than react.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same CR8 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 — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 1 restaurants around CR8 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

Before you open, because that is how the CR8 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 Kenley 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.
