The Goodwood Festival of Speed and Goodwood Revival are premier motor events that attracts over 350,000 attendees combined. It’s a celebration of motorsport and car culture, requiring meticulous planning and execution, especially in terms of catering and hospitality.
Goodwood’s operations are vast and varied, encompassing more than 50 food service areas, each with unique front-of-house and back-of-house requirements. To meet these needs, Goodwood required a supplier capable of delivering a large volume of high-quality equipment, while also providing exceptional support to ensure the success of each event.
This is where PKL Group and Lowe Rental stepped in, providing invaluable support to ensure the event’s success.
PKL Group and Lowe Rental were the ideal partners for the job, bringing over 45 years of event expertise and specialisation in refrigeration, catering equipment, and temporary kitchens. The project required a substantial inventory, including over 500 pieces of equipment—comprising 240 items of hot catering equipment, 200 refrigeration units, 74 cold rooms, and 15 kitchen units.
Our on-site engineering service and 24/7 technical support ensured seamless operations, with any potential challenges swiftly addressed to maintain uninterrupted service throughout the event. This proactive support played a key role in keeping the catering operations running smoothly, allowing the event to uphold its high standards and meet the needs of both staff and guests without disruption.
