The global restaurant kitchen equipment market is projected to reach approximately $112 billion by 2025. This presents a fantastic opportunity to think about starting your own commercial kitchen. Success in the restaurant business depends heavily on having top-notch equipment to keep operations running smoothly. After all, the kitchen is the heart of your business, where food is stored, prepared, cooked, and plated. It’s also where the dishwasher is housed, along with all the utensils, dishes, and cooking tools needed to run a smooth operation. To ensure longevity and efficiency, you'll want to invest in high-quality equipment that can handle the demands of daily use.
If you're contemplating opening your own commercial kitchen, you've come to the right place. In this article, we'll outline some essential items you'll need to get started.
First on the list are IMC Floor Troughs. When mopping and sanitizing your floors, you don't want to leave water or cleaning solutions pooling on the surface. This can lead to slip-and-fall accidents. Floor troughs help prevent these hazards by creating an incline in the floor and allowing liquids to drain away. Soups, beverages, sauces, and other liquids can easily be directed into these troughs. This is particularly useful in a busy commercial kitchen where spills happen frequently but need quick cleanup. Additionally, floor troughs can be a lifesaver in case of burst pipes or flooding incidents, helping to direct excess water away from your kitchen.
Next up are freezers and refrigerators. Every commercial kitchen requires some form of refrigeration unit. Whether it's a reach-in or walk-in unit, your choice will depend on the type of restaurant you're running and your specific needs. Outdoor refrigeration options are also available if space indoors is limited. Regardless of the type, your cooling unit is crucial to maintaining food safety and freshness, which is essential for any successful restaurant.
Moving on to IMC Food Prep Counters and Worktables. These are indispensable pieces of equipment for any commercial kitchen. Stainless steel surfaces are recommended due to their resistance to corrosion and ability to endure the harsh cleaning agents used in professional kitchens. Cutting surfaces can vary between plastic and wood, depending on your preferences and usage patterns.
IMC Dishtables are another must-have item. Without them, there would be no convenient place to store pots, pans, dishes, and other kitchenware. Dishtables offer both space for dirty dishes waiting to be washed and areas for clean dishes before they're put away. For optimal hygiene, it's wise to have separate clean and soiled dishtables.
Mixers and slicers are essential for preparing ingredients efficiently. Spiral mixers are ideal for working with thick materials like dough, while planetary mixers are better suited for general mixing tasks. For occasional slicing needs, manual food slicers suffice and are cost-effective. However, for large volumes or precise cuts, an electric slicer is the way to go. Consider purchasing specialized tables from IMC to provide stable surfaces for these appliances.
Sinks are fundamental in any kitchen, providing running water and a means to wash food, dishes, and hands. Local health regulations often mandate the installation of a three-compartment wash station and a dishwashing unit. Cleanliness is paramount in food service, so ensuring compliance with these regulations is crucial.
Stainless steel shelving and racks are invaluable for organizing your kitchen. They come in various sizes and configurations, making them suitable for both perishable and non-perishable items. IMC offers free-standing, wall-mounted, and table-mounted options to suit your storage needs.
For more enclosed storage, IMC Stainless Steel Cabinets are a great investment. Unlike standard shelves, cabinets provide better protection for glassware, plates, and other delicate items. Stainless steel models are not only durable but also easier to maintain, making them a worthwhile long-term investment.
Ovens are a core component of any kitchen. Convection ovens with fans and exhaust systems are perfect for roasting, toasting, and dehydrating. Regular ovens are better suited for batter-based foods. Depending on your menu, you might also need additional equipment like deep fryers or grills. Proper ventilation is essential regardless of the type of oven you choose.
In today's fast-paced world, technology is transforming even the traditional kitchen. Kitchen display systems offer real-time insights into inventory levels and order statuses, streamlining operations and improving customer satisfaction.
Safety is always a priority. Before purchasing any fire, safety, or sanitation equipment, check your local fire codes to ensure compliance. At IMC/Teddy, we offer more than just floor troughs.
