Testimonials
“Rapids Foodservice Contract and Design was awarded the bid on two of our most recent new kitchen projects. In all my experiences with foodservice contractors, Rapids has proven to be the most proficient and professional. Both projects had to be completed this past summer with training taking place prior to school starting. Equipment installation happened when they said it would, training was scheduled with all manufacturer representatives, school kitchens opened as promised, and punch list items were taken care of in a timely manner. during the entire project, the Contract and Design Specialist and Project Coordinator handled all matters very professionally…”
“Luke Green and the design team were incredible. They observed prior to the remodel, they were able to identify our problem areas, and really worked to just streamline everything. Luke was available for every single question and provided updates along the way. It was really amazing and I would have to say we are 100% satisfied with the final result of this project.”
“I really enjoyed working with Luke. I am comfortable with him and I feel that he is not trying to just “sell” me something, but trying to find solutions that work for me in the long run. He has ideas that make my operation run more smoothly. I will ask for him first, whenever I need something.”
