The Atelier kitchen will expand BM’s capacity further to cater events and dine dining requests for clients with limited facilities. The kitchen will be able to create around 1,200 hot meals every day as well as sandwich lunches and event food such as canapés and bowl or buffet dishes.
Each client will be allocated their own dedicated chef, ensuring menus are tailored to their needs by a chef who knows their culture and preferences.
BM chef director Pete Redman will oversee the space, supported by Nick Wallace Jones, commercial account director. Josh Parker has been appointed general manager of Atelier and Owen Stanford as head chef, who has been with BM for the last six years.
Redman said: “After several years of searching for an efficient and comfortable space, this new offsite Atelier kitchen is perfect to give the team the best environment to work in and the scope we need to build upon this model.”
BM has invested an additional £10,000 in ensuring facilities are state of the art. There is also the opportunity to take on an additional kitchen at the site this year.
