Top Tips for Using Professional Catering Equipment for Cinemas & Leisure Centres
To maximize your concession stand performance, always preheat equipment well before peak times—at least 30 minutes before major film releases or weekend rushes. Clean popcorn kettles daily to prevent burnt kernels affecting taste, and regularly check temperature settings on hot dog warmers and nacho cheese dispensers. Position your most profitable items at eye level, and consider bundling snacks with drinks for higher average spends. For leisure centres, ensure equipment is safely positioned away from pool areas and maintain strict cleaning schedules in high-humidity environments.
