June Sutherland Chapel Commercial Kitchen Installation
Project Overview
South Coast Catering Equipment was appointed to design and install a new commercial kitchen at June Sutherland Chapel in East Preston, West Sussex. SCCE worked closely alongside the main building contractor and associated mechanical and electrical (M&E) trades throughout the project.
The client required a practical and cost-effective kitchen solution that would support a wide range of events hosted within the facility. The primary objective was to create a functional commercial kitchen that would enable external hirers to prepare food on-site while also providing facilities to safely hold and serve pre-prepared meals.
The Challenge
The kitchen needed to be simple, reliable, and flexible enough to accommodate different users and event requirements. Coordination with multiple contractors and trades was essential to ensure the installation aligned with the wider building programme and was delivered without disruption.
Our Solution
Working closely with the client and project team, South Coast Catering designed and installed a bespoke commercial kitchen layout tailored to the venue’s needs.
The completed kitchen provides:
- Facilities for external hirers to cook food on-site
- Equipment for holding and serving pre-prepared food safely
- A practical and user-friendly layout
- A durable and compliant commercial catering environment
Throughout the project, we collaborated with the principal contractor and M&E teams to ensure all services, equipment connections and installation requirements were delivered seamlessly.
The Result
The project was successfully completed to the client’s specification, providing a versatile catering facility that enhances the venue’s offering for future users and event organisers.
Project Outcomes
- Commercial kitchen fully designed and installed
- Seamless coordination with contractors and M&E trades
- Completed on time
- Completed within budget
- Ready for immediate use by external hirers and event organisers
The new kitchen facility gives June Sutherland Chapel greater flexibility when hosting events, allowing external users to prepare, serve and maintain food safely on-site. This added functionality increases the venue’s appeal and supports a wider range of community and private events.
