How Burkett Helped

Burkett partnered with Cleveland Culinary Prep Kitchen, a shared-use commercial kitchen located in the Flats district of downtown Cleveland. The goal was to outfit a flexible, fully licensed space where chefs, caterers, and food entrepreneurs could cook, create, and grow their businesses using professional-grade equipment without the overhead of building their own kitchen.

Designed to accommodate multiple users and a wide variety of cooking styles, the facility required durable, easy-to-maintain equipment capable of handling high-volume use. Burkett supplied a complete package covering cooking, refrigeration, prep, and storage—ensuring the space could support everything from small-batch production to full-scale catering with efficiency and reliability.
