Founded in 1979 as Hayes Catering, our family began by supporting restaurants as they built their kitchens and supplying the tools they needed to thrive. Over the years, that experience shaped our understanding of what truly happens behind the pass, how demanding kitchen environments are, and what chefs actually need to perform at their best. BonChef grew from this foundation, evolving from a small catering supplier into a dedicated hospitality uniform brand trusted across the UK.

Working with thousands of chefs, restaurants, schools, caterers, and hospitality groups over the decades has shaped our entire approach to uniform design. We have seen what works, what fails, and where traditional uniform brands fall short. That insight guided us to develop our own way of creating clothing that meets the real pressure of service. Our focus on durability, comfort, and accessible pricing comes directly from decades inside kitchens, not from trends or guesswork.

Our commitment has helped countless businesses improve the way they equip their teams, reduce uniform costs, and deliver a more professional standard across their operations. From students wearing their first whites to the busiest restaurants in the country, we support every stage of the journey with products built for real performance and honest value.

Our goal is simple. Raise the standard. Lower the cost. And help every chef step into service feeling ready for whatever the shift brings.
