Two critical components to a successful commercial catering operation of any size are mobility and holding equipment. The nature of catering is such that food is typically prepared in one location and transported to another. This may be a hotel cooking food in one of their kitchens and transporting it several floors to the event they are catering, or a caterer preparing everything at his or her own kitchen and driving it across town. Because the food is often transported along with the fact that large amounts of food are prepared at once, holding equipment is of the utmost importance. Food needs to maintain its temperature, whether that be hot or cold, while it is waiting to be served. Depending on the size of your operation, we will help determine the proper size and amount of holding and rethermalization equipment necessary. Our team has the experience and know-how to help guide you through the maze of getting your food safely and securely from its cooking location to your customer's serving location.

Emily has been a real development partner throughout all of our growth. She is very in tune to what we want to accomplish in a project and helps to design in a way that allows us to really achieve our goals….she is utterly instrumental in designing our spaces and implementing our unique processes. She always asks the right questions and leads us down the right path.
For example, when we first met with C&T, Emily immediately understood our goal. With a farm to fork concept in mind, Emily saw what we wanted to accomplish and helped us find the best way to implement our chef-focused vision of a modern kitchen experience.

I have known Mr. Adam Shepard for over ten years and have worked alongside him at C&T Design and while he worked at previous companies. During this time, Mr. Shepard has proven to be completely reliable and professional and carries out his tasks in a timely manner. It was certainly a pleasure working alongside his company and it is without hesitation that I recommend him to any individual or institution requiring his services.

I have worked with C&T Design in 3 states building kitchen classrooms. My experience with John in Detroit has exceeded my expectations with the customer service, knowledgeable advice and high standards of work provided. From quote to delivery through to installation, there was great communication with C&T and the team. They adapted to construction changes and offered solutions when needed. I look forward to our next project together.
