First industrial-scale test kitchen unveiled together with latest industry partnership and comprehensive solutions

Rieckermann recently took part in Gulfood 2023 with a comprehensive showcase of innovative solutions for bakery, ready meal equipment and freeze-drying applications in the manufacturing and services fields of the food processing industry. The company also presented their integrated engineering and technical portfolios, which featured wide-ranging services in facility design, machinery-related expertise, and project consultation & management for profitable, stable, and safe production.

These solutions were presented in collaboration with prestigious partners Rondo and Koenig, Rieckermann’s long-term associate for pastry and bread equipment; Belshaw, a dedicated donut specialist with world-renowned donut fryers and machines; and Berief, a manufacturer of equipment for home-cooked style ready meals, including plant-based recipes. Also present at the show was DEVEX Verfahrenstechnik GmbH, Rieckermann’s new partner for the freeze-drying sector. The two companies’ joint process engineering approach to freeze-drying solutions attracted significant attention, signaling great potential and keen interest from both visitors and prospective customers.

In addition to unveiling their partnership with DEVEX, Rieckermann also announced the upcoming launch of their SKIA industrial test kitchen in Manila, Philippines. A first-of-its-kind in the region, the test kitchen is equipped with best-in-class facilities suitable for both small and industrial-scale productions. With this facility, Rieckermann is expanding their provision of wide-ranging industry solutions to their customers. The goal is to assist in establishing equipment and process flows, sourcing quality ingredients, crafting recipes, providing kitchen and staff support, producing samples, and evaluating products.
