The Future of Commercial Kitchens: Automation
At Antunes, we know that automation equipment is the future of the foodservice industry.
With automation equipment from Antunes, your boring, repetitive tasks are handled, and you can focus on creating an excellent customer experience. Having strong front of house customer service is essential if you want to turn your guest into loyal, return customers.
The possibilities of automation equipment in the foodservice space are endless. Automation equipment brings consistency and reliability while solving pain-points.
Antunes continues to focus on three primary goals with automation.
- Boost productivity and profitability
- Eliminate redundant, non-valued added tasks
- Easy to integrate into existing restaurant footprints
Focusing on improving these pain points is not only within the best interest of the operator, but also is a huge help to team members.
Not only can automation manage these redundant tasks, it also improves ergonomics and supports safety of team members.
Who can Benefit from Automation Equipment
Automation is ideal for commercial kitchens looking to increase throughput and reduce overall operating costs. And actually, automation can even help boost throughput even if you’re running with less overhead.
Operations running short staffed can continue providing service as usual by passing off some of the more tedious tasks like toasting buns or saucingpizza.
Many employees do not want to do certain tasks because they are either difficult or boring and usually, those types of repetitive tasks are ideal for automation solutions.
Automation equipment also brings consistency to your operation which benefits brand awareness and boosts brand loyalty – think increased sales and repeat customers.
This consistency increases revenue and helps reduce wasted food product ingredients. While automation equipment is an investment in your commercial kitchen, it also can help increase profitability and boost team member morale.
At Antunes, people are our 1st Core Value – So we know how important your team members (your people) are to your operation. With automation equipment, you can experience less team member injuries, better ergonomical support while moving your team members to customer-facing tasks.
Reminder: Automation equipment is not used to reduce team members, rather it increases efficiency so that employees can focus on value added tasks such as improving your customer’s experience.
