We represent several leading brands of commercial foodservice and laundry equipment, attesting to the strength of the partnership, trust and support between Gemini and HSL.
As the most expensive part of a hotel per square meter, it is appropriate to have a third party provide guidance on space planning, selection of equipment, and value engineering when the cost has swamped the budgets for these large areas. Frequently, fervent operators push Food Service Consultants to specify more equipment than required for the destination in question, such as locations that have daily supply of perishables, but the consultant specifies a large number of cold rooms, based on traditional practices.
Calculations on Laundry loads are also an item of assumption, resulting in the size of major equipment being unfeasible, where more of smaller equipment would serve a hotel with various requirements more competently, and with energy efficient solutions.
