What's covered in a commercial kitchen Sydney fitout
A complete fitout draws from five equipment categories. Sydney venues we've supplied tend to buy across all of them:
-
Refrigeration — commercial fridges, freezers, bar fridges, display units, blast chillers, salad bars.
-
Cooking — ovens (convection, combi-steam, deck), gas ranges, fryers, griddles, salamanders, woks, pizza ovens.
-
Prep — mixers, slicers, food processors, blenders, stainless steel benches and shelving.
-
Dishwashing — underbench, passthrough and conveyor dishwashers.
-
Beverage — espresso machines, grinders, drink dispensers, ice makers, hot water urns.
A typical Sydney café fitout sits around $30-50K (refrigeration + cooking + coffee + prep). A restaurant fitout runs $60-150K depending on cooking line complexity and venue size.
Catering equipment versus commercial kitchen equipment in Sydney
Some Sydney buyers search "catering equipment sydney" expecting party-hire gear (chafing dishes, food warmers for events). We don't do hire — but if you're a catering company building out a commissary kitchen, you're in the right place. Commercial kitchen equipment, not party rentals.
Why CKA for Sydney commercial kitchen sourcing

Common questions
Can you supply a complete Sydney venue fitout?
That's most of our work. Send your floor plan or equipment schedule and we'll come back with a quote covering refrigeration, cooking, prep, dishwashing and beverage — single delivery, single warranty contact, single point of accountability.
Can I pick up from Parramatta?
Yes — contact our team to confirm stock and arrange pickup from the Parramatta warehouse. Larger items (3-door fridges, full cooking lines) need a forklift on your end or trade trailer with tie-down.
Do you handle install and commissioning?
For most equipment, install is straightforward (plug-and-play after positioning). Commercial dishwashers and combi-steam ovens usually need a plumber and electrician for water lines, drain, and 3-phase power — we can recommend trades in the Sydney area but don't do the install ourselves.
What's included on a Sydney fitout quote?
Itemised equipment list with model numbers, individual pricing, freight or pickup costs, warranty terms, and finance options if requested. Plumbing/electrical install is a separate trade quote.
Is everything certified for NSW commercial use?
Yes — every unit complies with AS/NZS 60335 series electrical safety standards plus category-specific standards (commercial refrigeration, gas appliances). NSW Food Authority and council inspectors won't have a problem.
What's the warranty across the full range?
Manufacturer cover varies by unit — typically 1-5 years on parts and labour, depending on the product and brand. Full details on our warranty page. Sydney metro warranty service is direct from our techs.
