Commercial Catering Equipment Supply & Installation

Choosing the right commercial catering equipment is only part of a successful foodservice project. Ensuring every appliance, fabrication element, utility connection and installation stage is coordinated correctly is what turns a specification into a kitchen that performs. Gratte Brothers provides a complete commercial catering equipment supply and installation service, supporting clients with everything from individual equipment upgrades to fully managed turnkey kitchen fit outs across hospitality, leisure, education, workplace and public sector environments.

With long-established relationships across the world’s leading catering equipment manufacturers, our team is able to source reliable, high-performance solutions to suit both premium and value-led project briefs. We work closely with clients to ensure every product selected aligns with operational demand, available services, programme requirements and budget expectations, while maintaining the technical quality and longevity expected of a professional commercial kitchen installation.

Project Management and Handover Training

A successful kitchen installation depends on disciplined coordination from the moment equipment orders are placed through to final commissioning on site. Every Gratte Brothers project is supported by a dedicated project manager working alongside office-based procurement specialists, programmers and directly employed installation engineers to ensure deliveries, site access, sequencing, utility coordination and final fit-out progress smoothly and to programme.

Whether installing against a consultant-led design or via our commercial kitchen design service, our team manages…

…each stage of the works to maintain quality, communication and accountability throughout. This single-point oversight reduces delays, minimises contractor clashes and gives clients confidence that every aspect of the catering package is being professionally controlled.

Our service continues beyond physical installation. Once equipment has been commissioned, we provide practical handover and operator training for kitchen staff to ensure every appliance is used safely, correctly and to its full capability from day one. This includes familiarisation with controls, operating procedures, shutdown protocols, cleaning guidance and manufacturer best practice, helping clients protect their investment while allowing kitchen teams to begin service with confidence.

Compliance and Certified Installation Standards

We employ qualified installation engineers experienced in commercial catering environments and trained to deliver installations with nationally recognised safety, gas, electrical and ventilation standards. This includes compliant gas installation and commissioning, safe electrical connections, water and drainage integration, extraction interface considerations, appliance testing and final safety verification. Commercial Gas Safe registered engineers are certified across installation, commissioning, servicing and safety check categories, ensuring all gas catering equipment is installed and brought online safely and legally.

Beyond statutory compliance, our quality assurance process ensures every item is checked, commissioned and documented prior to handover so clients receive a kitchen that is not only operational, but demonstrably safe, correctly configured and ready for immediate use.

Equipment

Our supply capability covers prime cooking equipment, combination ovens, refrigeration, warewashing, food preparation appliances, extraction interfaces, fabrication, counters, servery systems, cold storage, shelving, specialist stainless steel items and ancillary back-of-house requirements.

Alongside fixed heavy equipment, we also support projects with light catering equipment, one-off equipment replacements and phased refurbishment procurement, allowing clients to access the same level of technical guidance whether undertaking a complete kitchen transformation or targeted asset upgrades. By working with a broad network of globally recognised manufacturers, we can deliver both best-in-class and best-value solutions tailored to the commercial priorities of each facility.
