From large events, such as weddings and anniversaries to smaller luncheons and dinners, catering businesses need a reliable and practical transport solution. Catering operations from small businesses to larger enterprises require a vehicle which can accommodate and transport a wide variety of equipment and perishables. The panel van has long been the workhorse to ensure the proper and safe delivery of food, catering equipment and personnel. Many catering businesses need to transport food, staff and equipment to off-site premises for functions and events. Very often, pre-prepared food and platters will need to be transported delicately so that these items arrive at the venue looking and tasting as good as when they left the kitchen. The ample space and versatile configurations of the loading area in today’s panel van make this the perfect vehicle to safely stow delicate items. Street Smart Handling Getting food to its destination can be one of the most stressful parts of catering for events. These modern panel vans are nimble street-smart vehicles designed to navigate urban roads with ease. Their relatively small, car-like size allows for exceptional manoeuvrability. With various wide opening doors at the rear and on one side of the vehicle, the latest panel van allows drivers to get the vehicle as close to loading bays as possible. The side doors slide open for ease of loading and unloading providing an ease of use which is more practical than wing doors. The Space To Be Creative Having the space for the necessary holding and serving equipment as well as easing the loading and unloading process is especially critical in keeping food safe while in transit. These vans have a spacious load compartment, which envelops 3,200 litres and a superb 741kg load rating. Other models push this impressive special offering to 4,200 litres with an equally impressive 813kg payload. These panel vans can easily accommodate the necessary equipment required for the job. It may also be necessary for equipment such as tables, chairs, dishes, glassware, linens, dance floors, and tents to be transported. These kinds of panel vans have outstanding towing capabilities. The typical panel van can tow up to 1,300kgs and while others can tow up to 1500kgs, so nothing need be left behind. Efficient Economic Driving The modern panel van can easily deal with the logistical challenges which can create additional costs for any catering business. Their two-litre turbo diesel engine and petrol engines serve the vehicle well and return exceptional economy at the same time. These engines offer exceptional fuel economy with a combined fuel consumption of as little as 5.6 litres per 100km. The usual high build quality makes these vehicles a sound investment because each of these vans are built to be reliable and to offer affordable maintenance.
