A messy kitchen is never appreciated. Whether it is visible to the customers or not, an overly crowded kitchen stuffed with appliances is a big drawback for chefs as well. When it comes to organising and planning, storing your utensils in a way that every piece fits in place, along with giving your kitchen a perfect feel. Large appliances, such as refrigerators and fryers, are designed to be placed in open areas. Whereas small appliances like plates and bowls, or even raw materials like vegetables and dairy products, when left loosely on the counters, can become confusing and create a mess.
An organized and well-stored kitchen enables smooth access and food preparation so that the flow keeps going and you serve your customers with your best dishes. While you understand and serve your customers with the best food, we at Alister understand the requirements needed to serve your best dishes.
With 100+ years of experience and 3 generations in action, we classify your needs to provide you with the best storage equipment. Our range of trolleys and racks helps you keep your kitchen organised, while also enabling easy access to every utensil and raw material needed. In this blog, you will find a range of storage solutions offered in various sizes and included compartments ranging from companies like Alsiter’s in-house brand to Orange Kitch. We at Alister believe that a kitchen is the backbone of a food joint, and we are the backbone of a well-equipped kitchen.
Best Storage Solutions By Alister
Storage is a crucial aspect in maintaining a kitchen, as we discussed, but storing randomly is also not advised. Stacking the vegetables on a trolley and placing the smaller appliances in a vegetable rack is also something that is not to be done. Alister helps kitchens not only establish but also help them in maintenance by offering the best commercial storage solutions by national and international suppliers. Let’s look at our basic yet best storage equipment that helps you store your materials in a proper, systematic way.
Vegetable Trolley

During rush hours, picking the correct raw materials and keeping things organised is crucial. You don’t want your spicy onion pasta to have a bitter garlic taste because you picked the wrong vegetable. A vegetable trolley basically helps you keep the onions, tomatoes, broccoli, cucumbers, potatoes, etc., sorted.
- Typically constructed from stainless steel or durable polymers, Alister offers vegetable trolleys with multi-tier shelving that allows for easy segregation of different types of vegetables, reducing cross-contamination and supporting food safety protocols.
- We have a range of vegetable trolleys with different sizes and numbers of storage compartments to choose from.
- Beyond storage, these trolleys maintain a workflow by reducing back and forth trips to the cold storage.
- Apart from that, we offer vegetable trolleys with a locking system that ensures stability during peak service hours.
If you are on the hunt of picking the best storage equipment in kitchens, then the first addition should be a vegetable trolley from Alister, as we offer the best quality while maintaining safe food standards.
Tray Trolley

A shelf stacked up with trays and a batch of freshly baked cookies, dumped into a fryer just because you picked up the wrong tray. This sounds confusing, but it is more of a mishap. Keeping your trays sorted, not frying your cookies, and baking your nuggets, a tray trolley is a must-have addition. When it comes to choosing commercial storage solutions that last, Alister is the name you can trust.
- At Alister, our Tray Trolleys are designed while keeping in mind the daily hustle of peak hours.
- They are simple to clean, easy to move, and built with intricate details that keep your trays in place and the batch of food fresh.
- Our products are backed by durability and a team of experts who understand the importance of delivering the best results.
So whether you are setting up a buffet or delivering a set of fresh baked Diwali goods, Alister helps you keep your kitchen trays organised with ease and a little bit of polish.
Handling Basket

Washing your utensils on time, as soon as they are used, is a good thing, but keeping them as it is in the washer or on the drying plate near your sink can attract a lot of pests like cockroaches, rodents, or ants. In China, these seem to be a delicacy, but in India, they are a big affirmation of an ill-maintained commercial kitchen. Maintaining your kitchen and keeping your utensils stored in a dry and designated place is a must, and that is where a Handling Basket will help you.
- Keeping things sorted is kind of Alister’s forte and most loved thing to do now, so we make sure that our baskets are designed for daily use, which helps you in organizing your supplies in a proper format.
- Our design and material are preferred by everyone except the pests, as we are not here to feed them but instead our precious guests.
- A properly maintained kitchen includes utensils that are clean and ready to serve, avoiding the hassle of late deliveries.
Our thoughtful engineering, reliable quality, and a deep understanding of what the kitchen really needs help us in creating the best commercial storage solutions, which vary in size for you to pick.
Storage Racks

Mixers, choppers, and blenders all need to be placed properly, because you don’t want your mango to be chopped up for a pasta seasoning and your onion be blended into a smoothie. Organising and segregation of your appliances helps in picking the right tool for the right task.
During peak hours when you are too busy preparing a savoury and a dessert, you surely don’t want to mix up just because you picked up a chopper instead of a blender. To avoid that, we need storage racks where the first section is dominated by mixers, the second by choppers, the third by blenders, and so on.
- Creating flow, saving time, and keeping things spotless is what you need and is what Alister loves to provide.
- At Alister, our engineers understand the rhythm of smooth operations, while your guests understand the taste of Chef Special dishes.
- Made with high-grade stainless steel and designed for flexibility, our storage racks come with sizes and numbers of sections to choose from.
Whether you’re storing dry ingredients, utensils, or cleaning supplies, our commercial storage solutions keep everything visible, accessible, and hygienically separated.
Wall Shelves

Salt and sugar might look similar, but they do not taste similar. Adding salt to a dessert and sugar to a savoury dish might sound funny, but the laughter won’t last long if the dish is served to the customer. In a hotel’s kitchen, every inch of space matters, and during peak hours when you are juggling with the preps, plating, and clean-up, you need wall shelves that work with you. A shelf that supports your ladle placement while you create magic with the salt and sugar without mixing them up is a necessity.
- While you take care of your customers’ requirements, Alister takes care of your chefs’ requirements.
- Wall Shelves at Alister are designed with durable materials and have foldable hinges. This makes sure that it is used when needed and closed when it acts as a barrier in smooth operation.
- At Alister, we design with your rhythm in mind. Our shelves are made from high-grade stainless steel, easy to clean, and built to last through the busiest service hours.
Whether you’re organizing prep tools or keeping essentials within arm’s reach, this storage equipment helps you stay focused on what matters, delivering that perfect plate every time.
