Cafe Linen In Stratford On The Morning Round

Yes — Stratford sits on the E15 round, 7 days, 12.2 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Maryland, Hackney Wick and West Ham — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single-site account sensible to price.
• The driver knows the streets around Stratford, Abbey Road and Stratford High Street — which matters more at seven in the morning than it does at eleven.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, because Stratford is only 12.2 miles out.

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 — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most Stratford cafes are not short of linen overall — the shortage has a shape, and the shape is Saturday.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — Stratford in December is not Stratford in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same E15 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — the round does not change when the kitchen opens.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — priced per item on the account you already have.
• 128 restaurants around E15 are on this round too — we are not learning kitchen work on your account.

That is the point of putting Stratford on the E15 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 Stratford.
• Timed around Stratford 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. 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 Stratford 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 — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — so there is never a morning in Stratford with nothing clean.

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

• Small sites go on the same E15 round — so you are not paying for a dedicated trip into Stratford.
• 113 cafes around E15 are already on it — so the round is built for counters, not bolted on to a hotel run.
• 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 — we own the stock, replace it as it wears and keep the par count topped up.
• Wash-only — the same garments that left Stratford, tracked, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hire what nobody sees, keep your own name on what the customer does.
