"MCFT had taken over from a supplier who had not been performing very well at all. They were left with a number of issues when picking up the services, however, were ready for the challenge. A great amount of time was invested to fix a high volume of issues in a short space of time, whilst continuing to deliver a great level of service."

When equipment fails, healthcare teams feel it fast.

In healthcare, a failed combi-oven, dishwasher, cold room, fridge or freezer can quickly become an operational problem. Meal service is disrupted. Teams start chasing updates. Temporary fixes become expensive. Compliance records become harder to evidence. Estates and catering teams lose time they do not have. Patient care can be impacted.

MCFT is designed to remove that pressure.

We help you move from reactive firefighting to planned, visible and accountable maintenance, so your kitchens keep running safely.
