Operating a food business is no small matter, whether you’re organising staff processes and maintaining your premises in an orderly fashion, or you simply oversee distribution and creation of tasty fresh and frozen products - there’s so much to stay on top of. A tough task even when you’re part of a large team, outsourcing some of the more important technical aspects of a food business can yield rewarding results, which is exactly what we’ll be exploring within this blog post.
From maintaining and checking up on the overall condition of freezers, air conditioning systems and more, to implementing ventilation systems worthy of a 5 star establishment, these background processes are the very foundation of a successful operation. Let Mitchells take you through everything you need to know when outsourcing such features, with an emphasis on quality and practicality.
Assorted Needs
No two businesses are exactly alike, and for this reason, a top facilities management provider will take the time to review your exact requirements, and address them appropriately. Take a small independent provider of fresh fruit for example. A client of this description would be unlikely to require the same amount of support as a large wholesaler or supermarket client, though appropriate changes or repairs to a freezer system may still be necessary. Our all-round facilities management services are in place to optimise your output, so if there’s a particular offering that you don’t deem necessary, we can work with you and find alternatives - making our output truly bespoke.
Comprehensive Air Conditioning
Air conditioning is important within the food and beverage sector not just for staff and customer satisfaction, but also to ensure operational efficiency. Equipped with air filters and other useful measures to ensure proper hygiene, systems installed by us are reliable and easy to use. Airborne contaminants including dust, allergens and harmful particles can compromise product quality or employee health - and maintaining high air quality is essential to prevent the accumulation of airborne contaminants in locations that prioritise food hygiene.
Air conditioning systems facilitate proper ventilation, filtering, and purification of the air, ensuring a clean and safe working environment. Mitchells create unique solutions for each HVAC service we carry out, therefore we visit our client’s sites to ensure plans are extensive and correct. For new commercial developments, we can ensure a smooth design process and HVAC installation by working closely with architects, consultants and project managers.
Reliable Refrigeration
As you probably already know, if food isn’t kept well frozen while being stored, there can be detrimental effects for anyone who eats it. Risks of disease, food poisoning and all manner of nasties persist for anyone eating consumables which haven’t been properly frozen, therefore if your freezer has packed up, or if you feel your existing set-up isn’t suitable for the scale of operation you’re looking to carry out, our team of experts are ready to jump in and help out.
No matter what industry you’re in, or what the problem is, Mitchells can assist with retail fridges, catering fridges, restaurant fridges, cold rooms and walk-in freezers. We work with customers of all sizes, whether you’re a caterer requiring one fridge or a retailer sorting out numerous units! Prevent otherwise edible and delicious food from going to waste by optimising your fridge and freezer set-ups with our help.
All-Round Heating
Contrary to issues with a freezer system, a lack of heat can be just as detrimental to food products, especially those requiring storage at room temperature. As heating experts, we’re qualified to keep your heating systems operating in the best condition. Our team can provide one-off assistance, or you can even hire us as your dedicated building services experts for a longer project. Available throughout Gloucester and beyond, we’ll keep your facility safe, efficient and problem-free.
Experiencing boiler problems or ongoing issues with your commercial heating? We’re fully equipped to provide these services in the local area. The team here at Mitchell’s are reliable specialists who are on hand to help you with your commercial systems in a professional manner. Our team will assess the condition of your boiler and complete the work quickly so things are back up and running in no time!
Complete Ventilation Systems
Necessary for any environment in which food is being prepared, a mechanical ventilation system helps to control airflow, producing a constant supply of fresh air from outside, while removing stale air. These ventilation systems also help to control many other variables such as temperature, air quality, oxygen levels and more. Cooking can release smoke, grease and toxic particulates into the air, which can be unsafe for not only kitchen workers but customers as well - making ventilation a necessity.
An efficient Mitchells heat recovery ventilation system for your restaurant or food preparation space will remove airborne contaminants and gases, while controlling the temperature inside the kitchen. Aside from routine safety, food can come with bad aromas that will no doubt impact the customer experience if your environment is public facing. An efficient kitchen ventilation system can help to eliminate these odours to ensure your space is not impacted by bad smells, as well as reduce the risk of fires.
Work With The Best
Looking for facilities management services that really set your business on the right track? At Mitchells, we’re pleased to serve organisations across the country. As many contractors and commercial builders there are likely to be for you locally, we stand out among the crowd, maintaining specialists with a genuine passion for customer service, and individual areas of expertise. We take a holistic approach to every project too, with attention-to-detail and a personalised service for clients who decide to work with us.
Mitchells: Much More Than Commercial Refrigeration And HVAC Installation
