Collection Overview
The Tuxton Chicago Collection is an Embossed Pattern in Porcelain White — a traditional embossed design with the flexibility to be used for both casual and fine dining establishments, appealing to the finest of tastes. Chicago is one of Tuxton's most complete porcelain white collections: in addition to a full plate program, it includes a stackable beverage family (espresso, cup, mug, soup mug), a coffee/tea service set, salt and pepper, creamer, and gravy boat. A single collection that can cover the entire table. Backed by Tuxton's lifetime edge chip limited warranty.
Target Segment
- Fine dining and upscale casual — the traditional embossed pattern reads as elevated without being ornate; appropriate for white-tablecloth environments
- Hotels and resort restaurants — the tea pot, creamer, and gravy boat make Chicago ideal for hotel dining rooms that offer full table service
- Country clubs and private dining — the classic pattern and complete table service program align with member dining expectations
- Full-service restaurants — any operator who wants a single collection to cover plates, beverages, and tableside service pieces
Sales Tactics & Tips
- Lead with the complete table — Chicago is the only porcelain white collection where an operator can spec everything from one line. Set the full table during the presentation.
- Coffee/Tea Pot conversation — CHT-170 is a genuine differentiator. Very few china programs include a tea pot. Any full-service or hotel operator should see it.
- Gravy Boat upsell — CHR-125 is an easy add-on for American comfort food, roasts, and any concept that serves sauces tableside.
- Salt and Pepper close — CHL-030 completes the table. Position it as the finishing touch that keeps the tabletop cohesive.
- Stackable story — the stackable espresso/cup/mug/soup mug family reduces storage and reset time. Strong selling point for high-volume operators.
