First choice for Adande spares

UK: Catering equipment spares supplier First Choice Group has signed a new exclusive partnership with commercial refrigeration manufacturer Adande. 

As the latest manufacturer to confirm a Master Distribution Partnership with First Choice, Adande’s customers will benefit from an up-stocking of the most common genuine spare parts, accessories and consumables.

Since introducing its first, modular refrigerated drawers in 2006, Lowestoft-based Adande has built a reputation for its energy efficient, reduced carbon footprint equipment.

“Our new partnership will enable operators and engineers to have quick access to all the most common spare parts for the Adande portfolio, which in turn will help to maximise up-time in a busy kitchen and support those looking to repair rather than simply replace equipment during its lifecycle,” said First Choice Group’s head of manufacturer partnerships Steven McLaren.

As well as having access to genuine OEM parts for the full Adande equipment portfolio, customers can also rely on advice and guidance on Adande equipment from dedicated advisors.

Same day dispatch and next day delivery will be offered as standard on orders placed before 19.00 weekdays.
