What does a Catering engineer do?
A catering engineer has a variety of responsibilities, but they primarily revolve around ensuring compliance with health and safety standards in commercial kitchens. Not only does this involve variables such as client engagement and supplying high-quality food, but it also needs to take into account the installation and maintenance of modern catering equipment.
Whether referring to commercial gas certificates or emergency repairs, addressing issues as soon as they become present will save a great deal of time and money. What are some of the additional benefits attributed to our qualified engineers?

A catering engineer can be a great asset to your catering business. They can help you in many ways, such as: providing commercial gas certificates and catering equipment for your food truck; designing kitchen layouts; and even helping with the design of menu cards. Commercial catering engineers must remain one step ahead of the technological curve if they hope to keep abreast of the latest safety requirements and installation guidelines. Businesses rely upon these professionals in terms of codes and regulations.
Companies can therefore remain assured that their premises are fully compliant at all times. This is also critical from a safety perspective, as appliances could otherwise present a hazard to employees and the public in general.

6 fascinating history facts about Sussex
1. Finds at Boxgrove, near Chichester, reveal that Sussex was home to some of our earliest human ancestors.. A single bone and two teeth from Homo heidelbergensis – a possible common ancestor of both ourselves and Neanderthals – alongside fossil remains of lions, bears, rhino, deer and voles, revealed a site dating back around 500,000 years. Often referred to as Boxgrove Man, there is actually no evidence that these remains are of a male, but this person saw a landscape of chalk cliffs, which have since been totally eroded into our modern view of a flat coastal plain.
2. Sussex is rich in remains from the Bronze and Iron Ages, in particular the Bronze Age barrows known as the Devil’s Jumps, near Treyford, West Sussex, and Cissbury Ring, near Worthing, one of Britain’s largest hillforts. Intriguing and beautiful in equal measure!
3. The Romans certainly left their mark on Sussex. The Romans wrote about the inclement British weather and perhaps they were attracted to its sunnier climes? Did you know Sussex was home to the magnificent Roman Palace at Fishbourne – the largest Roman residence known north of the Alps. Much of Sussex appears to have been the home of a group of people we know as the Regnenses or Regni, and after the Roman invasion a settlement known as Noviomagus Reginorum, became modern-day Chichester. The Romans built villas, especially on the coastal plain and around Chichester. The best preserved in the National Park is at Bignor, but you can see the remains of a stunning Roman mosaic floor from Chilgrove in The Novium Museum in Chichester.
4. The name derives from the Kingdom of Sussex, which was founded, according to legend, by Ælle of Sussex in AD 477. In 825, it was absorbed into the kingdom of Wessex and subsequently into the kingdom of England. The name “Sussex” is derived from the Old English Suth-Seaxe which means land or people of the South Saxons – a group of Germanic tribes who settled the region in the 5th and 6th centuries.
5. Sussex is home to one of the most famous battles of all time – Hastings. The victory by the Normans over the Saxons on that October day in 1066 would change the direction of British history forever – even carving out a very different language to the dialect the Sussex folk had been speaking for several hundred years. Did you know that almost a third of English words we speak today have a French source?
6. The Normans certainly left their footprint on Sussex. The county was of great importance to the Normans; Hastings and Pevensey being on the most direct route for Normandy. The South Downs were a good watchpoint for invaders and castles were built to defend the territories including at Arundel, Bramber, Lewes, Pevensey and Hastings. The Normans also built Chichester Cathedral and moved the seat of Sussex’s bishopric from Selsey to Chichester.
