Thanksgiving Table 2019 Preparation

Thanksgiving Table 2019 Preparation

Place your table linen order today!

Have you begun your Thanksgiving table 2019 preparation? By now, your venue may have already begun taking holiday reservations.  While it may begin slowly, your calendar will fill up soon enough. Let’s start planning together.  Fortunately, Bergen Linen is here for all your last-minute table linen rental needs.

Thanksgiving is a special day that brings family (from all over) together.  Without a grand feast, is it really Thanksgiving?  (We don’t think so either!)  While family is a reason to gather, it is only all smiles with the right menu.

At this point, your chef and kitchen team have been working on a menu. Turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing – the traditional choices.  Then, you may consider throwing in some  personalized dishes as well.  Much like your meal, you can choose traditional (e.g. neutrals) and/or throw in something a little special. For example, a pretty gold napkin.  Gold, rust, dark green and other colored linen rentals speak ‘Thanksgiving’.  Dress up your table today!

While your kitchen has the meal prep down pat, there may be some areas that need to be addressed such as the decor.  Table linens, place settings and centerpieces should provide extra ambiance.

Consider some of these fall friendly ideas:

  • Pumpkins and squashes
  • Fall hued table linens
  • Metal inspired charger plates
  • Finest silverware and crystal

With your current decor in mind, add elements of autumn to your space. Let’s start taking care of your Thanksgiving Table 2019  today! Welcome your guests with the warm that this holiday brings.  It is a special time so embrace the moment.

Bergen Linen is still accepting holiday linen rental orders so feel free to call (800) 789-8115 or email info@bergenlinen.com today.  Questions about our color selections?  A team member will be happy to provide some great, helpful options. And don’t forget to follow us on Instagram!

First Week of Fall 2019 Check-in

Prepping for this season’s events.

Playful time between summer and true fall weather – and holidays.

With this being the first week of fall 2019, the Bergen Linen team thought this would be the perfect time to check in with you AND your team.  Although Autumn has officially begun, it certainly feels like summer.  It is actually an ideal time because your decor can fall into either seasonal category.

The most important thing to keep in mind is all those upcoming events and holidays.  While those events may seem far away, you know they will be here before you know it. Will you be ready?  This is the time to take a look at your current everyday linens.  (And also plan ahead for any specialty orders.)  Did you know Bergen Linen also offers various colors and textures? From the obvious to the more subdued, we are here for you and all your linen needs.

Seasonal fun!

When you think of fall, what colors do you think of?

  • Orange
  • Tan
  • Gold
  • Chocolate brown

However, ‘summer’ certainly seems to be sticking around.  Therefore, you can certainly still request more warm weather like colors. (And of course, there are really no actual rules to all of this!)

Looking for a little fall inspiration for your table decor?  We love Pinterest.  They provide great examples of decor for a restaurant’s daily ambiance  or for those special milestone parties.

Back-to-School 2019 – RFID 101

Back-to-School 2019

RFID 101 Class

RFID tags are sewn into our Bergen Linen labels.

Welcome Back-to-School 2019 season! Bergen Linen is excited to present to you a quick RFID 101 ‘Class’.  In addition, we will briefly explain how this is useful both to you (as the customer) and us (as the provider).

What does RFID stand for?

Radio Frequency Identification.

When was RFID technology invented?

Harry Stockman (scientist and inventor) has been credited with his 1948 invention.  However, Charles Walton was granted the first patent in 1983; his patent was for an RFID device.

How RFID is used in the linen industry?

These informative tags provide real-time inventory and tracking data.  This means a win-win for both you and your linen provider (should they have this technology).

Our entire inventory is trackable which saves you money.

Last year, Bergen Linen’s team spent many months sewing in these RFID tags (within a custom label).  Then, we structured our internal UNIX system to work in tangent with the tags.  Thus, allowing us to track inventory whether it be at our warehouse or on your shelves.   For example, let’s say there is an issue with ‘missing’ product.  A BL team member can pop by your venue with a tracking device.  If the linens are not there, we know to investigate a little further on our end.

Inquiries about inventory control and RFID system?
A Bergen Linen team member can answer any questions you may have – so ask away!

Call (800) 789-8115 or email info@bergenlinen.com.
