Food transport carts are one of the most vital kitchen equipment used for catering services. Initially, food transport carts were only used for movement of food from the kitchen to the guest room before it was served to the guests. However, with the great inventions in the industry, food carts cannot only be used to move food from the kitchen but also keep the food preserved before it is served to the guests. They have well organized compartmented cells that have thick walls for purposes of insulation. Food kept in one compartment does not affect the temperature of the food stored in the next compartment. Therefore, hot and cold foods can be stored at the same time in the same unit but different cells.

The most modern food transport carts can perform many more functions apart from preserving food and moving it from table to table. They have heating and cooling systems that can either be used to heat or cool the food inside. Such brands can therefore be used to store refrigerated drinks and beverages before they are served to the guests. They are manufactured in such a way that different compartments can be to perform different functions (heating or cooling) concurrently.

Most of the food transport carts that have a heating/cooling system are normally equipped with CNC control systems. They have a control panel that can be used to program the device to perform various tasks. For instance, one can set a particular compartment to heat food to a certain temperature and retain that temperature until the food is served. The computerized systems have made it possible for one to operate different compartments separately without any malfunctions. The food carts come in a variety of styles and size hence the buyer can consider factors such as the type and amount of food to be served before selecting the most appropriate type.
