FAQ

Commercial Kitchen Project Support Questions

Can SourcePro support a project before the equipment list is final?

Yes. A review can begin with the kitchen type, menu or products, capacity target, floor plan and destination. SourcePro can then organize relevant equipment categories and the questions that need confirmation before quotation.

What commercial kitchen equipment details can be customized?

Possible review areas include dimensions, stainless steel grade and thickness, structure, shelves, doors, sinks, drainboards, feet, casters, accessories and selected equipment configurations. Feasibility and final construction must be confirmed by the relevant supplier and approved in writing or by drawing.

What does pre-shipment inspection include?

Inspection is order-specific and may include product identity, quantity, visible workmanship, key dimensions, selected configuration points, accessories, labels and packing. The agreed scope is confirmed before inspection.

Does inspection replace certification or local approval?

No. Coordinated inspection does not replace laboratory testing, certification verification, warranty obligations, licensed design, code approval or destination-market acceptance unless a specific service is separately confirmed in writing.

Can equipment from several suppliers be consolidated?

Consolidation can be reviewed when the order includes multiple categories or suppliers. Packing method, warehouse handling, schedule, cost, freight method and responsibility must be included in the approved quotation or shipping arrangement.

Does SourcePro provide local installation?

SourcePro primarily coordinates equipment sourcing, specifications, inspection and export preparation. Site measurement, utility work, installation, connection, commissioning and local approvals should be handled by qualified destination-market contractors unless separately agreed in writing.
