Top Tips for Using Commercial Sandwich Shop Equipment
To maximise your sandwich operation's efficiency, organise ingredients in order of popularity—keeping the most-used items within easy reach. Clean your refrigerated units daily, paying special attention to gaskets and seals where crumbs hide. Maintain temperature logs to ensure food safety, and consider investing in high-quality sandwich paper and packaging that complements your setup. Most importantly, arrange your workflow in a logical sequence—bread, spread, protein, veg, finishing—to develop muscle memory that speeds up service.
