The big question is what cooking equipment should I buy for the restaurant kitchen. Beyond the different brands of equipment that are available, there is also the choice between new and used.
One school of thought is that you should buy as much used equipment as possible, to save money for all the other considerable start-up costs. The other says you should always buy new, because it comes with a warranty and is guaranteed to work from the start. Used equipment can be problematic and you end up spending more on fixing the equipment or finding out you have to replace it all together. Definitely an unwanted expense.
So, how can you take the risk out of buying second hand equipment?
Silver Chef, the hospitality equipment funder, has the largest inventory of 2nd hand equipment in Australia. There is a variety of reasons for this, one sometimes restaurants don't last, other times the owner changes the style of their menu to try other offerings and through Silver Chef you can return equipment after 12 months or even upgrade it mid term should you find that the equipment is not keeping up with demand and you need something bigger.
Silver Chef's Used Equipment is all Certified
It is important that customers have confidence in every piece of Certified Used equipment.
In fact, before it becomes available to be sold back into the market it all goes through a rigorous 6 step refurbishment process. And, if it doesn't meet the grade, it isn't sold.
Now there's some additional peace of mind!
