Buying Better: The Key to Consolidated Purchasing

by Singer Equipment Company

When it comes to executing your vision on time, and on budget, Singer has you covered.

That’s because our team of foodservice equipment and supplies experts are trained in the art of assisting our customers in buying smart.

“We’re always directing our customers to consolidate manufacturers because it presents a lot of advantages to the customer,” says Ray Blanco, Sales Account Executive at our Singer M. Tucker Miami offices.

Just take his team’s most recent completion of Delray Beach Market (DBM), in Delray Beach, Florida. The space has set the record as the largest food hall in the state; it currently hosts 28 independent restaurant concepts. It is a record-breaking installation, and its success is thanks in large part to a consortium of preferred manufacturer partners who offer our clients unprecedented deals with bundled buying. The refrigeration set inside this space showcases just that.

Our team of equipment experts specify brands strategically to maximize the operator’s experience, from price negotiation to eventual service and warranty requirements.

Any operator can learn from this approach to procurement, whether you have one hood system or fourteen (Delray Beach Market has fourteen, and they’re all Captive Aire). In a world of everchanging supply chain, it’s worth learning more about your equipment leveraging options today.

Just one hour down I-95 is The Oasis in Wynwood, Miami, where Brian Morehead, VP of Sales – Chain Equipment, and his team just completed each restaurant concept inside the 17,000 square-foot space outfitted inside a cargo container. His team has completed food hall projects all over the country, including Finn Hall in Houston, Texas, a true feat of Perlick tap technology.

“The food hall segment of our business has a long runway,” says Morehead. “At Singer, we focus on providing every level of detail necessary.”

Morehead’s team continues to consult on food hall projects nationwide, including the brand-new Station at Riverdale Park, set to open this summer. The space is so much more than restaurants co-existing; a walk through Riverdale Park gives way to lush greenery and interactive art installations and of course delicious food made possible with Alto-Shaam cooking technology as well as Krowne Metal and Hoshizaki refrigeration.

According to Foodservice Equipment Reports (FER), “food halls, with their reliance on large crowds, may seem unsafe from a social distancing point of view. But in many ways, they are well-placed for a quick comeback post-pandemic.”

“For starters, food hall menu items are already inherently transportable,” tells Phillip Landgraf, Denver-based Principal for Ricca Design Studios to FER. “For another, they tend to feature lots of space for social distancing, and finally, the shared environment provides a platform for chefs or restaurants to venture into new markets or test new concepts, with reduced investment (and risk).’”

When it comes to strategic buying (and predicting trends), the team at Tavistock Restaurant Group is expert. When their team built the expansive outdoor food park known as Boxi Park in Orlando, Florida, they came to Singer to consolidate the purchase of everything their operation needed, from equipment and smallwares to tabletop and takeout items.
