Become a partner with Hubbard Systems

For catering equipment dealers and commercial refrigeration service companies, having the right manufacturer and distributor support behind you can make a significant difference.

Hubbard Systems is looking to expand its network of equipment dealers and refrigeration service partners across the UK, helping us sell, install, service and support two established commercial equipment brands: Scotsman Ice Systems and SKOPE Refrigeration.

Whether you are an equipment supplier looking to strengthen your product portfolio or a refrigeration company interested in additional service and warranty opportunities, becoming a Hubbard Systems partner gives you access to specialist products backed by an experienced UK support team.

Who are we looking to work with?

We want to hear from businesses already operating within the commercial catering, refrigeration and foodservice equipment sectors.

This includes:

You may be interested primarily in selling equipment, providing technical service, or both. Our aim is to build partnerships that work for the individual strengths and capabilities of each business.

Add Scotsman Ice Systems to your equipment offering

Scotsman is one of the best-known names in commercial ice making, providing equipment for hospitality, foodservice and other professional applications.

The range covers a wide variety of ice requirements, including gourmet cube, supercube, dice, nugget and flake ice, alongside modular systems and ice dispensers.

For equipment dealers, becoming a Hubbard Systems partner provides an opportunity to offer customers a comprehensive commercial ice solution backed by specialist product knowledge and UK support.

For service companies, it creates opportunities to support commercial ice equipment already operating across a wide range of foodservice environments.

Expand your refrigeration offer with SKOPE

SKOPE commercial refrigeration is designed for the demands of professional kitchens and foodservice operations.

The range includes undercounter refrigerators and freezers, drawer refrigeration, upright cabinets, glass-door units and specialist preparation refrigeration.

One of the key advantages for both dealers and service engineers is the way SKOPE equipment has been designed around practical commercial use and maintenance.

Three-year parts and labour warranty

SKOPE equipment supplied through Hubbard Systems is supported by a three-year parts and labour warranty, providing reassurance for customers while giving dealers a strong additional benefit when specifying refrigeration equipment.

Removable refrigeration cartridge system

Selected SKOPE refrigeration is built around a removable refrigeration cartridge system.

Rather than carrying out extensive refrigeration work within a busy commercial kitchen, the refrigeration system can be removed as a complete cartridge. This can make diagnosis, maintenance and component replacement considerably more straightforward for service engineers.

For operators, the objective is simple: reduce disruption and help get essential refrigeration equipment back into operation efficiently.

Opportunities for refrigeration service companies

A strong service network is an important part of supporting commercial refrigeration and ice equipment throughout the UK.

Hubbard Systems is therefore actively looking to develop relationships with experienced refrigeration companies that can provide professional local service support.

Approved partners carrying out qualifying warranty and service work can be supported through the Hubbard Systems dealer compensation scheme, providing a structured approach to approved service and warranty activity.

Partners also have access to the Hubbard Systems team for technical assistance, product information and ongoing support.

For established refrigeration businesses, this can provide an additional source of service work while building a relationship with two recognised commercial equipment brands.

More than simply supplying equipment

A good dealer relationship should extend beyond supplying a machine.

Hubbard Systems combines equipment distribution with technical knowledge, after-sales support and experience of the commercial foodservice market.

By working closely with our dealer and service network, we can help partners:

The result is a stronger proposition for the dealer, the service company and, importantly, the end user.

Why become a Hubbard Systems partner?

For equipment dealers, adding Scotsman and SKOPE provides access to complementary commercial ice making and refrigeration ranges suitable for a broad range of foodservice applications.

For refrigeration engineers and service companies, the partnership offers the opportunity to work with commercial equipment designed with serviceability in mind, backed by specialist technical support.

For businesses capable of providing both equipment sales and after-sales service, there is an opportunity to develop a more complete local offering for foodservice operators.

Above all, we are looking for long-term partnerships with companies that share our focus on providing professional equipment and dependable customer support.
