About Us

Bonchef today, is one of the leading UK manufacturers / importers of hospitality uniforms and foodservice equipment. The Bonchef global team is actively involved in the development from inception to production of all the fabrics in our innovative range. Our Pakistan factory is a centre of excellence where we combine experience with technological advancement to produce quality uniforms. Offices in Guangzhou and Hong Kong source our catering equipment offering.

We are confident there is no finer collection to satisfy your requirements. A one-stop solution to all your uniform and equipment needs.

It all began in 1979 when the Butt family founded Hayes Catering Supplies in a small retail shop in Southall. Specialising in foodservice equipment the business flourished and grew, first in 1990 to a small local warehouse and then to a larger warehouse in 2002.

In 2005 Bonchef was born and the branded chefs clothing line was added to the product range. It soon became apparent that the chefs clothing was a success, and the high quality, low cost formula was a winner.

International orders began and distribution to Europe, Dubai and Africa was thriving.

In 2012 we gained patnerships in Guangzhou, China and Hong Kong to source our foodservice equipment ranges.

In 2014, due to space issues Bonchef was forced to move again, and this time we moved to a new site in Reading where we work from today. The merger of Hayes Catering Supplies and Bonchef was decided upon and we continued with the name Bonchef.

Bonchef today, is still owned by the Butt family and very proud to trade as a family business. We pride ourselves on our friendly and efficient service and will always do our best for all our customers. Our business is reliant upon the strength of our customers and the relationships we have forged with them over the years.

Bonchef….chef clothing that works.
