Gaining the Right Consents and Getting Through Planning
Catering Kitchen Planning - Technical Specifications
Setting up a foodservice business in a new premises can often require planning permission for ‘Change of Use’. Anyone can submit a planning application, however you may need specialist information to assist a successful application with minimal conditions for a foodservice business.
Target Catering Equipment can produce detailed technical specifications for submission to local authorities requesting information on ventilation systems, odour and noise control measures, as well as generating building floor plans, sections and external elevations showing the proposed technical details.
Compliance with Planning and Environmental conditions can save you heartache and a lot of money should you choose not to follow specialist advice. Retrospective applications and non-compliance will be costly, so make sure you get it right first time to save time and money.
Planning Permissions and Licenses
Questions you will need to ask prior to embarking on your new build kitchen design:
Do you need to apply for planning consent?
Is your development in a conservation area or listed building?
Do you need to apply for building regulations compliance for alterations?
Do planning conditions need to be discharged prior to installation of a kitchen ventilation system?
Do you need to apply for a license to operate or a change of use: ie from commercial property A1 Retail to A3 Restaurant or A5 Hot Food Takeaway?

OUR CUSTOMER FEEDBACK…
“At the end of our first week just want to say a massive thank you to Target for all your help with planning applications, awesome kitchen equipment and unwavering support. You guys are awesome!!!”
James Winter - Head Chef & Co-Owner
“I’ve had to see it in black and white, on the council’s website, to believe that we have approval…hoorah!! Thank you so much for your fantastic intervention which really did save the day.”
Helen Pearce - High Street, Chipping Norton, Gloucestershire
“From start to finish Charlotte, David and the rest of the team were there. We never knew of problems only solutions. A project well managed and brilliantly executed. Too bad I will need to wait 20 years for another one!
5 months on and we have improved atmosphere in the kitchen, improved productivity and much improved cooking! Thank you all again for the great job you did and we hope to see you all again at some point soon.”
Sonia Virechauviex and Tanja Lister - Owners
"A friendly and helpful business, that offers a far more personal approach and service than other companies. Every member of the team I've spoken to has been polite, helpful and knowledgeable about the products they sell."
Sally Pettipher - Catering MTL
"We worked with David and Target Catering from the start to finish, they designed and bespoke manufactured our tiny kitchen to our exact requirements. We were hesitant at the begining because we were used to the traditional gas wok cooker but thanks to the advice and support given at anytime during the project, we are very pleased. Thank you very much."
Wicha Kidhen - Chef Proprietor
"We have just had our first energy audit for costs over the summer busy period and we have saved £6k. The new kitchen is paying for itself already!! We expect the winter period to give us greater savings as this is when we had to have a gas solid top and grill burning away all service for few customer numbers. The Target induction range and Hi-touch grill offer great savings at these times."
"Very knowledgable and helpful team. Complete kitchen refit done on time, on budget and without fault. Couldn't ask for better service. 10/10."
Scott Chance - Head Chef
"Nice to meet people who go out of their way to do things properly, OCD in a good way ;)"
Mark Rafferty - Chef Proprietor
"I chose Target because they were able to totally work with me from beginning to end, from the initial chat stages through the whole design process, creating exactly what we needed."
Emily Watkins - Chef Proprietor
"I really couldn't be more pleased with our new kitchen supplied by Target, the quality of materials and build far exceeded my expectations. Add to that your patient service, precise plans and accuracy to the product created, topped off by the lengths your guys went to to get the units into the house, which was tough to say the least! I had no idea who I was dealing with when I first contacted you, as a commercial kitchen was outside my realm of knowledge, but I feel very lucky to have found your company, for both quality of product and service. Once again, thank you very much, our kitchen is better than we had hoped for. "
