Welcome to the W.D. Colledge Blog

Champion has developed a line of ventless warewashers that use reclaimed heat and steam from the previous load to preheat the water for the next load.  These space-saving dishmachines are very energy efficient and also ventless for ease of installation.

If you're running a small restaurant or a foodservice operation with limited space, you're always looking for new ways to add equipment to increase your menu and your daily sales. Ventless equipment might be the golden ticket, and exactly what you need to add to your kitchen. A new ventless oven or high-speed conveyor can open up menu options and help you satisfy more customers with a fresh pizza or many other types of  comfort food.

The team at W.D. Colledge has extensive experience helping solve foodservice storage challenges.

If you love food in all its forms, then there’s nothing better than watching a talented chef creating great dishes in front of your eyes. We refer to this as front-of-house cooking or display kitchens. Customers love it, and for restaurants, it’s often a marketing tool and an out-of-kitchen experience for chefs that really shows an operation's transparency.

Foodservice display cases are meant to provide eye-catching visibility while they maintain optimum food-safe temperatures. Federal Industries' new Hot Self Serve Merchandiser rises to the occasion by providing high-quality design without compromising top-of-the-line functionality.

These specialty merchandisers easily complement existing refrigerated units by offering customers a larger variety of grab-and-go options. With precision craftsmanship and quality innovation, Federal's latest Hot Self Serve Merchandiser is an industry gem.

Let's start with the basics. What is the cook-chill process?

Here in Canada, we have a great tradition of outdoor eating. Cooking in nature over an open flame with bag of charcoal and a heavy metal grate is kind of a rite of passage.

WD Colledge is happy to announce that we will be representing the new Middleby beverage companies. From bar and beverage automation to the best coffee makers available in the commercial market, we're your one stop resource to all things beverage.

Beverages can be one of the most profitable product segments of any foodservice operation. Whether you're a cocktail bar or a coffee bar, trends show more and more consumers are looking for high quality, handmade, craft beverages.

Pizza is an important staple in the diets of Canadian consumers. In fact, according to the 2018 Canadian Pizza Consumer Trend Report, 75 percent of all Canadians report eating pizza at least once a month.
