Kitchen Linen In West Brompton Back Before Prep

Yes — West Brompton sits on the SW10 round, 7 days, 6.5 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Earls Court, West Kensington and South Kensington — adding you changes the schedule, not the route.
• The driver knows the service entrances around Imperial Wharf, Parsons Green and Fulham Broadway — the same crew runs it weekly, so nobody is looking for your back door.
• A missed morning window here is recoverable the same day, because West Brompton is only 6.5 miles out.
• 383 kitchens around SW10 are already on this round — which is why the timings suit prep and service rather than check-out.

It is quoted, not tariffed. Kitchen work is priced on the brigade and the covers, so a published list would be a guess.

• We count a real week in West Brompton before quoting — rather than pricing off your last invoice.
• No minimum order — size barely moves the per-garment price.
• The count includes your busy season — which is where most estimates fall over; a figure taken in February will not survive August.
• The count and the quote cost nothing — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.

Yes. Contract catering, schools and care homes are all on the rounds.

• 12 school kitchens around SW10 are already on the round — the classification and the paperwork already suit that kind of site.
• 4 care home kitchens nearby — where consistency matters more than turnaround speed, and the account is set up for that.
• 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 — including the sections that get through two a shift.
• A new commis goes on the account the same week — a phone call to your account manager, not a reorder.
• Garments are named — which takes the sorting job off the pass entirely.
• Par counts are re-set after the first month — and again after your first busy season, which is where opening figures usually fail.

That is the point of putting West Brompton on the SW10 round rather than a separate trip.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
• Timed around Imperial Wharf so the van is not arriving into the worst of it.
• If a drop is missed, a missed morning window here is recoverable the same day.
• A relief driver inherits the window with the route — so cover weeks do not become the weeks it goes wrong.

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 size your brigade while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.
• 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. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

• Hire — the rail is maintained for you, including the jackets that scorch first.
• Wash-only — garment for garment, never substituted.
• Plenty of kitchens do both — hired cloths and aprons, own-branded jackets on wash-only.
• You can move a line between the two later — kitchens often start on hire and move their jackets across once the branding is settled.

Yes — kitchen soil is classified separately from front of house.

• Grease, protein and scorch need their own wash — grease lifts at a different temperature from protein, and scorch responds to neither.
• 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 — which matters on any site that needs an audit trail.
• Every load is temperature logged — so there is a record behind the classification rather than an assurance.
