Cafe Linen In Peckham On The Morning Round

Yes — Peckham sits on the SE15 round, 7 days, 11.1 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Nunhead, Camberwell and East Dulwich — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around Queens Road Peckham, Nunhead and Peckham Rye — 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 of that distance.

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 Peckham cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — rather than handled as emergencies.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same SE15 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 — added as lines, not as a new agreement.
• 80 restaurants around SE15 are on this round too — the kitchen classification already runs on it weekly.

That is the point of putting Peckham on the SE15 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 Peckham.
• Timed around Queens Road Peckham 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 — the programme is chosen for them, not inherited.
• 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 — a Peckham 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 — 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 Peckham with nothing clean.

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

• Small sites go on the same SE15 round — which is why size barely moves the per-item price.
• 45 cafes around SE15 are already on it — the vehicle is sized for this kind of work rather than adapted to it.
• 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 — your own branded aprons come back to you, the same items, not pooled.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hired glass cloths and tea towels, own-branded aprons on wash-only.
