Container Conversions for Catering - MenuBox Range
Containers Direct specialise in producing container conversions for all types of catering businesses, from the simple pop-up hot stand to a gourmet kitchen and bar. Robust, portable and quick to install, shipping containers provide an ideal foundation for catering units where mobility and security are essential. All our conversion work is carried out in our own workshops, by a team professional and skilled tradesmen. We've come up with a standard package of catering conversion, the MenuBox, available off the peg in five different sizes, including the standard size 20ft container. This keeps the costs down and enables a simple but highly effective structure when buying catering conversions.
Catering conversions typically need a standard fit out which we have perfected over the years and include all the features you need to get you started without breaking the bank. Optional extras are available at an additional cost. The MenuBox is manufactured from used shipping containers, as these represent the best value for money, while being incredibly strong and offering high levels of security at the same time. A good coat of rubberised marine paint, to the colour of your choice, is used to dramatically improve the external appearance, while wipe-clean melamine lining and vinyl flooring gives a clean and smart interior. We also offer the option of using a new shipping container as the basis for your MenuBox. See below for our comprehensive list of standard features. Bespoke conversions are always available in addition to the standard MenuBox.
