In foodservice, every second counts. Whether it's a commercial kitchen, a food equipment factory, or a supply chain operation, you're juggling speed, reliability, and cost at every turn.
That's why more companies are turning to custom assemblies—not just to keep up but to get ahead.
At Component Hardware Group (CHG), we've been helping the foodservice industry solve everyday problems with more innovative, tailored solutions. We're not just talking about parts; we’re talking about full assemblies—equipment built to your specs, ready to drop into production, and designed to save time, money, and headaches.
Here's a look at how it's working—and why it matters more than ever.
What Are “Custom Assemblies” in Foodservice?
Think of it like this: instead of buying ten (10) separate components from five (5) different vendors, doing your own assembly, and hoping nothing gets delayed or goes outside of the specifications, you get a pre-assembled unit built for your exact application, tested, and ready to go.
For foodservice manufacturers, that could mean anything from a valve housing to a full refrigeration component, all sourced, built, and delivered by CHG. There is no extra handling, no supplier drama, just plug-and-play simplicity.
Why The Shift Is Happening
The last few years have exposed just how fragile supply chains can be. Lead times balloon, costs spike, and quality becomes inconsistent. In food service, where margins are tight, and downtime is brutal, those problems add up fast.
Custom assemblies give you more control. By working with one partner (like us), you simplify the whole process—from design to delivery. That means fewer late orders, fewer quality issues, and fewer surprises when trying to hit deadlines.
The Real Payoff: Cost, Speed, Durability
Let's get real: no one's asking for “custom” just for fun. You want solutions that move the needle. Here's how CHG delivers:
✅ Lower Production Costs
By consolidating multiple components into a single assembly, you reduce sourcing complexity, minimize labor, and gain cost control. Our clients often find that simplifying their supply chain leads to meaningful savings in both time and money.
✅ Faster Lead Times
Standard parts can come with long waits or backorders. With CHG's global sourcing network and inventory management, we help ensure parts are ready when you need them, keeping production schedules on track.
✅ Built to Last
Foodservice equipment works hard—and so should its components. Our custom assemblies are designed with durability in mind, using materials and engineering that withstand pressure, heat, moisture, and constant use.
One Partner, Fewer Headaches
When you're sourcing a dozen parts from a half-dozen places, you're managing both logistics and risk.
With CHG, you get a single point of contact. We handle design tweaks, quality checks, inventory planning, and delivery. You don't have to chase down tracking numbers or resolve a mystery defect with someone overseas.
And if something needs to change? You pick up the phone and talk to someone who knows your product inside and out. Easy.
This Isn't Just a Kitchen Thing
Sure, we're rooted in foodservice, but the same thinking applies to any production line where quality and speed matter. We're already building custom solutions for clients in healthcare, HVAC, and other industries that face similar operational pressures.
So, if your world involves moving metal, plastic, wires, sensors, or all of the above—this applies to you, too.
Real Talk: Is Custom Worth It?
Custom sounds fancy—and maybe expensive. But here's the deal: when done right, it saves you money and time.
That's because we're not building from scratch every time. We bring decades of engineering knowledge, a vetted global supply chain, and a smart inventory strategy that means you only pay for parts when needed. There are no bloated stockrooms, and there is no cash tied up in sitting inventory.
In short, you get exactly what you need, when you need it, at a better price than doing it all yourself.
Why This Matters
Custom assemblies aren't just a nice-to-have. They're a way to:
- Simplify your production process
- Cut your costs (often by double-digit percentages)
- Get to market faster
- Improve product quality and consistency
- Reduce your stress (seriously)
