Customer Testimonials
Find out what it’s like to work with the Food Strategy team
Projects like this aren't possible unless you team up with someone like Food Strategy, who have made this process very enjoyable. We're ahead of schedule, touch wood that we continue on in that vein. We're opening here in a week's time, so we'd like to see you all down here. Things that we've loved about the project,: New kitchen is fantastic, functionality is good. It's just the right size now. So we've learnt from our previous stores what we wanted to change, Food Strategy listened. They came in and just gave us what we wanted. We're really happy, we couldn't be happier.
We had a vision that Food Strategy understood where others had struggled to see what we wanted to achieve. We had tried to get a solid plan in place for 2 years and were only offered problems with no solutions until we met with Food Strategy. Once they came on board, they not only understood our vision but had it drawn and all approvals in place within 4 weeks – they offered us solutions. Food Strategy have supported us every step of the way especially when we wanted a little extra hand holding and now 6 months later are still around when we need them even after they have delivered the job.
I have enjoyed working with you and the team and the level of professionalism and design outcomes has been excellent. I look forward to keeping in touch and hopefully working together on more projects.
Food Strategy came recommended to us as the ‘gurus’ in the food retailing build space and they have not disappointed. Puckles is an entirely new brand and required a huge commitment to detail along with the ability to change and adapt as the model progressed. When you're starting up a new business there's nothing better than having an expert partner in the fitout space and Food Strategy has been this partner for Puckles. Not only were they excellent in the shop build space but they have an exhaustive list of other suppliers that we were able to leverage for everything from interior design to furniture choice. A big thanks to Rob, Chris and the Food Strategy team!
Our health inspection passed with 4 stars this morning and I'm extremely happy and surprised with the rating - especially since 3 stars is the norm upon opening for most restaurants. I'd like to give a big thank you to everyone at Food Strategy who worked on my project and can't wait to open tomorrow... as long as I have time to cook tonight!
His work carried out today is not only impressive but we have had multiple people comment on-site the absolute professionalism he has shown. He is a wonderful asset to Food Strategy and we wanted to let you know that he is exceptional.
I would like to commend your team for prompt and accurate documentation for the International United Nations project at Africa Hall (UNECA headquarters / Ethiopia).
It is a pleasure working with the team who are Revit proficient, action requests promptly and capture all instructions in one go.
I would like to thank Food Strategy for your involvement with our recent school canteen designs and renovation. Your generous donation of more than $5,000 worth of design, drawing and consulting work enabled us to move forward with this project in a timely and professional manner. Your equipment and layout suggestions certainly allowed us to consider new possibilities for our menu and service. I am sure you will agree that our canteen is now a vastly improved facility and our 1,700+ students, as well as staff, are certainly reaping the benefits. Thank you once more for all of your assistance.
