Our Story
Commercial kitchen design plays a direct role in how an F&B business scales.
It determines how work flows during service, how consistently output can be maintained,
and how easily operations can be replicated across multiple outlets.
When the kitchen is not designed for scale, each new outlet starts to perform differently in execution, speed, and team performance.
Twelve Plus One (TPO) designs commercial kitchens as operational systems for growing F&B brands.
Every engagement begins at the planning and design stage, where the structure of the kitchen is defined to support
consistent execution from one outlet to many.
Based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
