We can help make food safety easy.

One of the most important issues facing independent restaurants, food safety requires the attention and cooperation of everyone on your staff. Good food safety is a lot more than your staff washing their hands thoroughly.

Ind_Food Safety 1Clean and sanitized ware is essential to any food-safety program. While chemical cleaners could leave your glasses and cups with unsightly stains such as lipstick, Hobart’s ENERGY STAR® rated AM Select high-temp warewasher is NSF-certified to clean and sanitize dishes and delicate glasses, and pots and pans as well.

Hobart’s 3000 Series Slicer  is the industry’s easiest-to-clean slicer. The carriage is tiltable and removable for thorough washing. The base is a single unit that can be wiped clean and leaves no cracks or crevices for waste to accumulate.

The recent trend in serving “fresh foods,” including organics, has added to the complexity of food safety. Hobart food processors can help you meet this market demand with safe food practices. For example, our diwash™ aluminum plates remove in seconds and can be cleaned and sanitized in a warewasher without fear of discoloration.

To keep your food fresh and safe, there’s our full line of Traulsen undercounter refrigerators and freezers with their exclusive microprocessors for precise temperature control.

Save energy, your water and your money, too.

Restaurants consume almost two and a half times more energy per square foot than any other commercial-type building. When you add in other utility costs, such as water, you have expenses that continue to erode the profitability of your restaurant.

ind_Cost 1Hobart equipment and service can help reduce those expenses. Our ENERGY STAR® rated CLe Warewasher —with Hobart’s exclusive Opti-Rinse™ technology—can save you as much as $9,192 a year because it uses less than half the water and energy, compared to previous models without Opti-Rinse.

The ENERGY STAR rated AM Select warewasher  uses less water—a mere .74 gallons per rack—than any other door-type warewasher on the market. The AM Select can save you up to $1,400 a year in energy and water—assuming five hours of warewashing per day.

With approximately 400 ENERGY STAR rated appliances to choose from, we give you lots of way to save. For example, Traulsen ENERGY STAR rated refrigerators and freezers can cut your refrigeration energy costs as much as 45%.

Hobart Service can help you get the highest level of performance from your equipment with preventive maintenance, service contracts, extended warranty contracts and other specialty programs.

Improving the productivity of your staff.

The largest private-sector employer in the country, the restaurant industry runs on people. For the independent restaurant, wages and benefits account for fully one-third of your costs. Compounding the cost is the high rate of turnover, resulting in the added expense of training and motivating new employees.

Hobart equipment is designed to help you deal with these dual issues by providing products that are easy to operate, require minimal training and increase productivity.

Ind_Productivity 1The Hobart Legacy® Mixer  is the only mixer with a swing-out bowl, making it simpler to add ingredients and take out product, to mount and change bowls. It has other features to improve productivity, too, such as Automatic Time Recall that remembers the last time set for each speed, making it ideal for mixing batches of the same product.

The Hobart Combi® Oven brings push-button convenience to cooking. You can preprogram up to 100 different recipes that your staff can execute at the touch of a finger.
