Commercial Kitchen Design
The kitchen is the heart of any restaurant. But no two commercial kitchens are exactly alike.
Our Chef consultants have designed multiple commercial kitchens for both new restaurant openings and existing restaurant refreshes. When it comes to selecting the right equipment and designing for efficiency, leave that to our seasoned veterans so you get it right the first time. We can capitalize on our excellent connections to various suppliers to get you the best pricing on your requirements.
*While The Fifteen Group does not do interior design work, we do provide Commercial Kitchen Design services—which should never be left to interior designers or kitchen supply companies.
Here are just some of the benefits of working with a professional chef consultant when designing your commercial kitchen:
Strategic Layout
Understanding your menu and process of execution is a critical first step to assessing the layout of your kitchen. When the kitchen is designed strategically, the back-of-house can execute your menu style while maximizing service speed.
Ergonomic Staff Flow
Set up the flow of your kitchen based on the interactions between front and back of the house. A carefully thought out design will map out how staff move through the space to minimize accidents, reduce repetitive movement and increase labour efficiency.
Smart Equipment Selection
Based on your menu and concept, we’ll help you understand the equipment you need to purchase and where you should invest your budget. Unlike some kitchen equipment distributors, we promise to never upsell you on expensive custom pieces you may not need. Our goal is to choose equipment based on your layout and budget, not a profit margins.
Regulation Compliance
Local Occupational Health and Safety regulations have strict guidelines. This can include sanitation, proper food storage, handwashing stations and waste handling protocols. Understanding these early in the design process can save you money in the long run.
