Established in early 2016, Head Chef is the youngest child of a family which has been carrying out business New Zealand wide for more than 30 years. It is no secret that high quality catering equipment is notoriously expensive and available from a very narrow range of sources, and that is about to change. On this, the man in charge, Brian Hitchon, says:
“Head Chef’s associated company, Topmaq imports and supplies a wide range of equipment and machinery to industry and home handymen. Many of the people using this equipment work in manufacturing plants, warehouses and garages. Topmaq recognized there was a need for refrigerators, food warmers and beer fridges in or near the work areas. Topmaq imported a small quantity of these items, but found the demand exceeded expectations. Topmaq added other catering products produced by these manufacturers to their orders for fridges and warmers and commenced supplying the catering industry. With the expansion of this activity, it was decided to separate catering supply from Topmaq’s usual business and offer a specialist service to the catering/hospitality industry – hence the formation of Head Chef Ltd.”
