Denny's is the catering
division of Wood Harris Ltd.
Wood
Harris, incorporated in the 1870's, was originally based in the
North of England. From its inception it specialised in uniform and
corporate wear. Wood Harris was purchased in 1984 by H.Sedgwick
Ltd, a wholly owned Jubert Family Company. Wood Harris then bought
Denny’s, a 150 year old UK based catering clothing company in
1996.
The traditional product
range was increased, and a new and innovative modern brand was
developed. The British public responded well to the revolutionary
‘Le Chef’ large black and white check trousers, a range
of strikingly coloured jackets and a whole host of other
accessories. Following success in the UK market, a strong export
market particularly to Europe has been developed. We stock over 550
lines of Denny’s products, around 60% is chefs' wear. Chefs'
wear garments are available in two distinct ranges; Denny’s
and Le Chef. The obvious difference between the two brands is the
cut. Denny’s garments have a traditional (suit) cut, whereas
the Le Chef have a modern, baggy (jogging) cut. Le Chef is the
mainstream export product. The lack of modern chefs' wear in Europe
has made the Le Chef garments very popular.
Within its traditional
range, Denny’s has a collection of multicoloured chefs’
hats, aprons, cloths, neckties and, of course, chefs’
jackets.
