The KitchenPod is a modern and hygienic kitchen unit complete with essential catering equipment, packaged in an efficient, easy-to-install building pod. The KitchenPod is delivered on the back of a lorry and can be installed onsite in a matter of hours. KitchenPods can be finished to your specifications meaning they can seamlessly blend in with existing school buildings. KitchenPods are available to hire or for an outright capital purchase.
