In the heart of Liverpool, the majestic Liverpool Cathedral hosted a grand gala dinner for 1,500 distinguished guests. Tasked with delivering a flawless dining experience, the catering contractor faced the challenge of setting up a fully functional temporary kitchen within the Cathedral's unique and challenging environment.
The catering equipment hire company, On-Site Kitchen Rentals Ltd, rose to the occasion, ensuring seamless execution from planning to event day.
The catering team required a temporary kitchen solution capable of supporting the preparation and serving of gourmet dishes for 1,500 guests at this prestigious event. The facility needed to include:
Given the Cathedral's iconic architecture, the equipment had to be delivered and installed without disrupting the venue's operations, while navigating narrow access routes, steep inclines, and strict preservation protocols.
On-Site Kitchen Rentals Ltd conducted site visits to assess access routes and identify potential challenges. The team collaborated with the Cathedral's event managers to determine suitable locations for equipment placement that adhered to fire safety and logistical standards.
To manage restricted access, On-Site Kitchen Rentals Ltd deployed multiple light goods vehicles for delivery instead of HGVs and equipment designed for ease of transportation.
Specialised trolleys and lifting equipment ensured smooth delivery without compromising the Cathedral's delicate interior.
The company provided energy-efficient and compact equipment, including:
On-Site Kitchen Rentals Ltd technicians were on-site to oversee the installation, troubleshoot any technical issues, and ensure all equipment operated at peak efficiency throughout the event.
All equipment was sanitised and certified in compliance with food hygiene regulations and all electrical regulations.
