Take your food and drink business on the road with a pop-up catering unit. Made from shipping containers, easy to transport and with endless modification possibilities, our catering conversions have become the go-to choice for the festival circuit.

Whether it's a huge four-day long music festival, a street food festival, or even a semi-permanent summer spot to enjoy al fresco drinking and dining, nothing tastes better than a fancy hot-dog or burger with an ice cold beer in the sunshine.

Created in our our own workshops, these include installations on the London South Bank, Wembley Stadium, football clubs, New Brighton Pier and the Download Festival.
