Maintain on-site meal production while your permanent kitchen is remodeled, expanded, or replaced. KCI plans temporary kitchen facilities around your operation, available space, and construction schedule.
A kitchen renovation changes where your team works, but the people you serve still depend on daily meals. Planning temporary kitchen space early helps your team prepare for the transition before demolition or construction begins. KCI works with facility operators and project teams to identify the cooking, preparation, cold storage, and warewashing space needed throughout the renovation.
Review the planned kitchen shutdown, anticipated rental duration, daily meal volume, and available installation area. Account for delivery access, staff movement, and meal distribution while construction is underway.
KCI configures equipment and work areas around your menu, production needs, and staff workflow. Our team handles delivery and installation and assists your project team in coordinating site access and utility connections.
Explore production kitchens and support units that can be configured around your renovation. The right setup depends on meal volume, menu, available space, and the functions your permanent kitchen will lose during construction.
