Some renowned kitchen equipment manufacturers share their plans for the upcoming year, while enumerating on why their brand is imperative and vital for the hospitality industry.
INCLUSION OF INNOVATION
Within four years of our existence in the commercial kitchen equipment scene in India, Customized Kitchen India, better known as CKI, has benchmarked itself as a distinguished brand with many firsts to its credit.
Tarun Raj, Founder and CEO of the company launched a 18-month warranty scheme on its equipment that none of its competitors offered. This year at Aahar we extended the warranty period to five years, which no other company has done.
This also shows our firm belief on the quality of our deliverables. We are not only creating avenues of innovative kitchen equipment, but also concentrating on peripheral services that complement our overall service delivery.
Further, CKI has already been able to export its services internationally with a couple of projects under its kitty, matching global quality standards. Chef Gautam Chaudhary is our brand ambassador, who has resonated our brand’s convenience factor across the chef fraternity in India and abroad.
FUTURE PLANS
We want to establish our second manufacturing unit outside Delhi to support the rising numbers of purchase orders from different industries. We have outlined Bengaluru as our next destination to support our ambitions and to capitalise the market potential of the southern part, while on lookout for possible opportunities from off-shore geographies.
