Lockhart Catering Equipment has launched a new initiative to support NHS catering operations. The dedicated monthly newsletter, ‘Spotlight’, contains equipment guides, supplier showcases, and discounts of up to 15% on a range of products. The tailored offer aims to round up everything hospital caterers need to know in one centralised place.
As one of the UK’s leading equipment distributors, with over 400 brands and more than 32,000 products in its extensive portfolio, Lockhart has quickly become a convenient one-stop-shop for caterers.
Simon Britten, Head of Marketing at Lockhart Catering Equipment believes the resource will provide insights and information that will be highly beneficial to NHS caterers:
“The NHS provides 140 million inpatient meals every year, making it one of, if not the largest catering operation in the country. Beyond the sheer volume the NHS cater for, there are many patients that require specialised solutions. For example, Robot Coupe’s Blixer has been specifically designed to prepare texture-modified meals for conditions such as dysphagia. Similarly, Amefa’s range of cutlery includes curved or size altered utensils for patients with limited mobility in one or both hands, resulting in dexterity limitations. These solution-driven products are available in one place thanks to Lockhart’s diverse portfolio, and our newsletter aims to promote unique equipment designed to make patient and hospital caterer’s lives easier.”
Beyond patient-led solutions, Lockhart’s ‘Spotlight’ newsletter also rounds up ‘must-know’ information for behind the scenes, including ever evolving waste management requirements.
The NHS-specific newsletter will be available alongside Lockhart Catering Equipment’s ‘Sustainable Future’ newsletter, which aims to inform readers of key environmental topics and contribute to the sustainability conversation gaining momentum and visibility in the foodservice industry.
