Chef Whites In Tewin On The Kitchen Round

Yes — Tewin sits on the AL6 round, 7 days, 18.4 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Welwyn Garden City, Welwyn Village and Hertford — the same vehicle covers them, so a brigade here can be added without moving anyone else.
• A missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week, which is what 18.4 miles buys you.
• 5 kitchens around AL6 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit prep and service rather than check-out.

Outside both, because prep is the window most suppliers hit.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — against your service pattern, not ours.
• A drop in the middle of prep is a drop nobody can receive. The round is sequenced around that.
• If a drop is missed, a missed window here is picked up on the next round rather than the next week.
• A relief driver inherits the window with the route — the timing is a property of the account, not of one driver remembering it.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than locking you into a summer volume you do not use in February.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will size your brigade while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — the two overlap by design.
• If it is not working, say so — the fix is usually a number on the sheet rather than a new contract.

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

• Hire — stock, replacement and sizing are ours; you never place an order.
• Wash-only — the same whites that left Tewin, tracked by name, never swapped into a pool.
• Plenty of kitchens do both — hire what nobody reads, keep your own name on the whites.
• You can move a line between the two later — kitchens often start on hire and move their jackets across once the branding is settled.

Separately, and at its own temperature.

• Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — and their own temperature.
• Whites never run through the cycle the table linen was on — and that separation is the whole reason ours stay white.
• Colour-coded cloths stay in their own classification — from collection to the rail, so the coding still means something when it comes back.
• Every load is temperature logged — and the log is against your account, not a general plant figure.

Priced on your brigade, not off a rate card. The number depends on sections and turnover, not on floor area.

• We count a real week in Tewin before quoting — the invoice tells us what you were sold, not what you used.
• No minimum order — a two-section Tewin kitchen is priced per item, same as a brigade of thirty.
• The count includes your busy season — a Tewin kitchen quoted off a quiet month runs short in the one that matters.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — and commit you to nothing.

Yes, and they are not an afterthought on a restaurant round.

• 1 school kitchens around AL6 are already on the round — the classification and the paperwork already suit that kind of site.
• Term-time and seasonal swings are planned in — a quiet August is expected, not penalised.
• Colour-coded cloths and named whites — suit sites that need an audit trail.
• Contract caterers running several sites — keep one invoice and one point of contact however many kitchens are on it.

Sizing is where most kitchen accounts go wrong, so we do it on site.

• Every section is sized at setup — not estimated from a headcount.
• A new commis goes on the account the same week — brigades in Tewin change constantly, and the account is built for that.
• Garments are named — the rail is ready and nobody is hunting for their size.
• Par counts are re-set after the first month — against what the brigade actually used, because any opening count is an estimate.
