F&B Interior Design & Renovation

Creating Delicious Inspired Spaces, Where Flavour Meets Design

As a TRUSTED renovation company specializing in retail F&B (Food & Beverage) spaces, we subscribe to a set of detailed workflow/procedure in carrying out our renovation projects:

Initial Consultation: Meet with the client to discuss their vision, budget, and timeline for the renovation project. Understand their specific requirements, such as seating capacity, kitchen layout, and branding elements.

Site Assessment: Conduct a thorough assessment of the existing space, noting any structural issues, utilities, and compliance with local building codes and regulations. Take measurements and photographs for reference.

Design Development: Collaborate with an architect or interior designer to develop detailed design plans that meet the client's requirements and comply with regulations. This includes layout, finishes, fixtures, equipment, and branding elements.

Cost Estimation: Prepare a detailed cost estimate for the renovation project, including materials, labor, permits, and any additional expenses. Present the estimate to the client for approval and discuss any adjustments or alternatives.

Permit Acquisition: Obtain necessary permits and approvals from local authorities, such as the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), National Environment Agency (NEA), and Singapore Food Agency (SFA). Ensure compliance with regulations related to food safety, hygiene, and accessibility.

Procurement of Materials and Equipment: Source materials, fixtures, equipment, and furnishings according to the approved design plans and budget. Coordinate deliveries and ensure availability of all necessary items before construction begins.

Construction Planning: Develop a detailed construction plan, including a timeline, schedule of work, and coordination of subcontractors (e.g., electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians). Ensure clear communication and coordination among all parties involved in the project.

Demolition and Site Preparation: Begin renovation work by demolishing existing structures and preparing the site for construction. This may involve removal of old fixtures, flooring, walls, and equipment.

Structural Work: Make any necessary structural modifications or repairs to support the new layout and design. This may include reinforcing walls, floors, or ceilings, as well as installing new structural elements as needed.

Interior Finishes: Install flooring, walls, ceilings, lighting, and other interior finishes according to the approved design plans. Ensure compliance with hygiene and safety standards, particularly in food preparation and serving areas.

Kitchen and Service Area Installation: Install kitchen equipment, plumbing fixtures, ventilation systems, and service counters according to the design plans and specifications. Ensure proper functionality, safety, and compliance with food safety regulations.

Furniture and Fixture Installation: Install seating, tables, signage, display cases, and other furniture and fixtures to create a welcoming and functional dining environment. Pay attention to ergonomics, comfort, and aesthetics.

Final Touches and Branding: Add final decorative touches, branding elements, and signage to enhance the ambiance and reinforce the client's brand identity. Ensure consistency with the overall design concept and theme.

Testing and Commissioning: Conduct thorough testing of all systems and equipment to ensure they meet safety, hygiene, and operational standards. Make any necessary adjustments or repairs as needed.

Handover and Training: Hand over the renovated space to the client, providing them with all relevant documentation, warranties, and maintenance instructions. Provide training to staff on the use of equipment and maintenance procedures.

Post-Construction Support: Offer ongoing support and maintenance services to the client, addressing any issues or concerns that arise after the renovation project is completed. Ensure customer satisfaction and long-term success of the renovated F&B establishment.

By adhering to the above detailed workflow/procedure and working closely with clients, designers, subcontractors, and authorities, WE are able to successfully renovate a retail F&B shop/outlet/restaurant in Singapore to create a vibrant and inviting dining experience for customers.
