How to Choose the Right Catering Supplies
Size and portions
Begin by looking at your most popular dishes and pick pack sizes to suit them. Over-sized packaging wastes money and looks empty; under-sized packaging leaks and damages your reviews. Many catering supplies come in multiple sizes, so test one case before ordering bulk.
Material matters
Paper-based and compostable materials work well for venues with eco-conscious customers, while polypropylene and aluminium remain the value choice for high-volume kitchens. Check heat resistance for hot food, grease-proofing for fried menus, and microwave-safety if customers reheat at home. UK single-use plastic rules restrict some lines — our range is compliant.
Think in cost-per-serve
Compare products on cost per serve rather than case price. A slightly dearer case with 25% more units is often cheaper per meal. Our bulk tiers reduce the per-unit price as you add cases, and part-box options let smaller businesses start small without tying up cash.
Plan your storage
Packaging take up shelf space — order a realistic weekly volume rather than bulk you cannot rack. Cases are labelled with counts and dimensions so you can work out storage in advance. Use older cases first and keep kraft and paper products away from damp to avoid warping.
Bulk Buying & Trade Accounts
Each line carries automatic quantity discounts — the more cases you add, the lower the unit price. Leicester customers ordering weekly can contact us for account terms, and our current deals page lists clearance and seasonal offers. Every order comes with a full VAT invoice for your records.
Delivery to Leicester
We ship from Enfield, London five days a week. Deliveries to Leicester usually land on a next-working-day service once dispatched and every order is tracked. Delivery is free over the free-shipping threshold shown in the cart, and smaller orders pay a flat delivery charge. Check delivery details for cut-off times and services.
Reliability matters in hospitality: running out of catering supplies mid-service costs sales. Easy Supply holds weeks of stock on everyday lines so Leicester kitchens can rely on availability all year round.
Packaging is marketing: clean, well-fitted packaging keeps food at its best and signals quality on Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat. Standardising your catering supplies is a low-cost ways to lift review scores in Leicester's busy takeaway market.
Prices are live on easysupply.co.uk — no request-a-quote forms, no hidden charges. Add cases to the cart, see quantity breaks apply automatically, and check out in minutes 24/7.
Eco credentials matter for Leicester customers: local authorities and apps are pushing paper-based and compostable formats. Switching even part of your range to kraft, bagasse or FSC paper is a story worth telling — and our range prices those options competitively.
First time ordering wholesale? Start small with one case of your two or three fastest lines, measure how long they last, then move to a regular reorder. Most Leicester businesses settle into a steady rhythm that keeps cash flow smooth and shelves tidy.
