Cafe Linen In New Southgate Before You Open

Yes — New Southgate sits on the N11 round, 7 days, 7.1 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Arnos Grove, Friern Barnet and Barnet — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• The driver knows the streets around Arnos Grove and New Southgate — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is reading a map on your doorstep.
• A missed morning window here is recoverable the same day, which is what 7.1 miles buys you.

No minimum, on any line. Most of what we collect in N11 is exactly that size.

• Small sites go on the same N11 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 13 cafes around N11 are already on it — so the round is built for counters, not bolted on to a hotel run.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in New Southgate and a busy July are the same account.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. The two sit on one invoice and one round.

• Hire — stock, replacement and par management are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left New Southgate, 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 morning window here is recoverable the same day.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most New Southgate 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 — New Southgate in December is not New Southgate in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same N11 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.
• 9 restaurants around N11 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

That is the point of putting New Southgate on the N11 round rather than a separate trip. 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 New Southgate.
• Timed around Arnos Grove and the traffic that comes with it.
• If a drop is missed, a missed morning window here is recoverable the same day.

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 — rather than whatever the machine was doing before.
• 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 New Southgate 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 — the two overlap by design.
