Hands off experience for the New Builds Manager
Combining our knowledge of the care sector with our expertise in design and build, we have worked with MMCG to provide complete refreshment solutions for their new build care homes nationwide.
In the past, procurement and installation of drinks equipment for new homes had been time consuming and challenging for MMCG, who had to orchestrate several different suppliers around their contractors. With Liquidline, the process was much simpler.
MMCG understand that having a variety of beverages available at convenient locations is crucial to ensuring residents stay hydrated. We therefore specified a range of premium refreshment solutions to suit their needs, including fresh milk bean-to-cup coffee machines, juice machines and water dispensers, placed in a variety of locations, including on-site bistros, residents’ lounges and staff rooms.
Once MMCG has selected their equipment for each site, Liquidline take the reins. We work directly with contractors, collaborating to ensure everything is prepared ahead of installation. From providing CAD files for technical drawings, to site surveys and installation checklists, we handle every detail, freeing up the team at MMCG for other matters.
In addition to supplying and installing new hydration equipment, we provide on-site training so team members can operate and maintain the new machines to their full potential. Like all our customers, MMCG also benefits from our comprehensive aftercare service, ensuring their new drinks machines are properly stocked and can be enjoyed by residents, team members and visitors alike, any time of day.

“Dealing with Liquidline has been a pleasure. It’s a great help to us to be able to partner with a single supplier for all areas of hydration in our care homes UK wide – Coffee, Water Coolers, Boiling taps and juice machines. As group commissioning manager for the new-builds I try to engage Liquidline as early as possible – go through the floorplans with them and agree on the most suitable equipment spec for each area. Liquidline will then engage with our contractors throughout the build to ensure the correct services are in place and that our Bistro areas, dining suites, resident lounges etc are designed correctly. Once the homes are opened, I can hand over with confidence, knowing that our team on the ground will be given comprehensive training and that the machines will be well maintained by their own team of engineers.
In the past we have tried to manage this same process using different suppliers for each machine category. Since using Liquidline I have found it to be vastly more straightforward. it’s helpful to be able to lean on a supplier who has worked in the care sector for many years, stocks the right equipment and is familiar with the nuances. “
