Cafe Linen In Stamford Hill On The Morning Round

Yes — Stamford Hill sits on the N16 round, 7 days, 9.2 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with South Tottenham, Stoke Newington and Seven Sisters — the same vehicle covers them, which is why a counter here can be added without moving anyone else.
• The driver knows the streets around Seven Sisters, Stamford Hill and Stoke Newington — 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, which is what 9.2 miles buys you.

Coffee oil, milk protein and syrup are not the same soil as food-service linen. Run on the wrong programme they accumulate rather than lift.

• 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 — overheating fixes the stain instead of lifting it.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a Stamford Hill 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 — the count and the quote commit you to nothing.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.

No minimum, on any line. A one-site independent is the normal shape of a cafe account.

• Small sites go on the same N16 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• 59 cafes around N16 are already on it — which is why the timings suit opening rather than check-out.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in Stamford Hill and a busy July are the same account.

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 — 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 Stamford Hill cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — we set them ahead rather than react.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same N16 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.
• 35 restaurants around N16 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

That is the point of putting Stamford Hill on the N16 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 Seven Sisters 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.
