At The Hungry Plaice we have recently introduced a new addition to our fleet Bessie a modern van specifically for certain corporate events which call for a modern van. This contemporary vehicle is equipped with a modern range fryer and will be able to cover long distances effortlessly, allowing us to continue to cater for clients even in far-flung locations! The decision to invest in this high-tech van was driven by the desire to preserve our beloved vintage vans, Betty and Beryl who aged 40 and 38 respectively need to do less travelling in order to keep them on the road for as long as we can. Betty and Beryl have been serving up delicious fish and chips for years, becoming icons of The Hungry Plaice's brand. They hold sentimental value that goes beyond their functionality as food trucks and customers had developed an emotional connection with these charming old-fashioned vehicles. Recognising this sentiment, we have decided it was time to protect Betty and Beryl from excessive wear and tear. By introducing the modern van for corporate events, The Hungry Plaice ensures that Betty and Beryl can get some well-deserved rest while still meeting the demands of commercial catering. The advanced features of the new van enhance efficiency making it easier for the business to accommodate large gatherings and operate in distant venues without straining their classic counterparts. Moreover, the modern van allows The Hungry Plaice to expand its reach into previously untapped markets. With its reliability over long distances, the company can now offer its renowned fish and chips experience at various events across different regions, attracting new customers who may have previously been out of range. Despite taking advantage of cutting-edge technology using this new vehicle, The Hungry Plaice remains committed to maintaining its traditional appeal. Betty and Beryl will continue delighting customers at weddings, private and some corporate events keeping alive the nostalgic charm that has become synonymous with The Hungry Plaice experience.  The decision to incorporate a modern van alongside Betty and Beryl represents a balanced approach between preserving tradition and embracing innovation. As we embark on this exciting chapter of expansion The Hungry Plaice remains dedicated to delivering excellence in our services.
