Q2 2014 GLIMPSES
NEW LAUNCHES 1. Turbo chef Ventless After a year of rigorous tests, Dominos India has approved Turbochef conveyor ovens for vent less stores which would mostly open at Gas stations, Metro stations, Airport & Petrol Pumps. Dominos should become a huge reference in promoting this oven to every single customer in the country that opens a store at a site like this wherever exhaust & gas is unavailable. 2. Pitco SSH55 Yum! India has approved the Pitco Solstice, Supreme & High Efficiency (SSH55) Fryer. The fryer has High Efficiency Design & Energy Star performance. It comes with the unique selfcleaning burner system which avoids maintenance, hassle free and recovery issues. The Fryer has a BTU rating of 80,000/ tank against the 100,000 BTU/tank of the previous model SG14TTR. This means that the fryer offers 25% gas savings against the previous model. 3. Houno Venky Approval In the year 2012, Venky's used to use rotisseries to roast chicken, a grill/hot plate for their grilled chicken burgers, chicken tenders, Frankie's and a Deep fat fryer for their Fries. We suggested that just by using a Huono Combi oven, we could help them eliminating all the equipment listed above thereby reducing the size of their kitchen. Huono Combi Oven Saves time as it is much faster Energy Efficient Cost of procurement is low Less usage of Oil and Manpower Our Conceptualization provided a solution to our satisfied customer by our product
