LONDON, Oct. 12,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Perfect fries will soon
always be in the hands of consumers as Karakuri, the company
revolutionizing quick service (QSR) and fast casual restaurants
with intelligent, robotic kitchen automation, today unveiled its
new family of /FRYR™ automated fry lines. These intelligent,
high-precision frying solutions enable restaurants to save time and
reduce waste while ensuring perfectly cooked fried food is
available, exactly when needed.
/FRYR210 is the first model in the range of automated fry
lines. It combines robotics and real-time data analysis to provide
restaurants with optimal fried food production of up to 130lbs/60kg
of french fries per hour. Simultaneously, /FRYR210 improves food
quality and consistency by ensuring the SOP is adhered to 100% of
the time.
/FRYR210's automation works with existing fry wells, extraction
and fire suppression to allow employees to spend less time in front
of the fryer and more time on value added, customer-focused tasks
within the restaurant.
"With more than 22 billion pounds of French fries eaten each
year globally, frying is a massive business. Every restaurant knows
that serving consistently crispy, fluffy fries will keep customers
coming back for more," said Barney
Wragg, CEO and co-founder of Karakuri. "Our new family of
/FRYR automated fry lines is changing the game for QSR and fast
casual restaurants. It strikes the perfect balance of food, people
and intelligent automation allowing restaurants to deliver expertly
fried food with total consistency and availability, at a price
point that works for their bottom line."
Karkuri /FRYR
The /FRYR family combines the company's innovative hardware and
software to ensure increased throughput, consistency, and quality -
from freezer to scoop.
Key /FRYR benefits include:
- Food waste reduction thanks to Karakuri's patented /APC™
portion control technology /FRYR is able to prepare variable basket
volumes, ensuring fry baskets are filled with exactly the right
amount of product to perfectly match restaurant demand.
- Maximised operation efficiency by real-time
monitoring and prediction of frozen food levels, /FRYR alerts staff
in advance when frozen produce needs refilling avoiding costly
delays.
- Reduced energy consumption and increased oil
lifespan through dynamic, real-time temperature control of
the entire system from freezer to fry well and scoop.
- Easy installation kitchen layout, using less floor space
than traditional lines and utilising existing extraction and fire
suppression systems, /FRYR210 can be installed overnight to easily
replace traditional fry lines with no interruption to kitchen
operations.
"The /FRYR210 is the first in a family of fry line solutions,"
added Wragg. "We will be expanding the /FRYR range in the future to
support varying numbers of fry wells and freezers to help meet the
cost and capacity demands of every restaurant."
/FRYR210 is available today via Karakuri's Performance
Partnership business model, starting at $2,100 per month.
First /FRYR210 installations in Tier 1 QSR and fast casual
restaurants are scheduled for Q3 2022.
Karakuri Performance Partnership
Model
Karakuri's unique Performance Partnership
business model takes a new approach to the Robots-as-a-Service
(RaaS) model, in which a customer pays a single, monthly fee to
have a robot supplied, maintained, and serviced by the robotics
company. With the Karakuri's Performance Partnership, the cost and
risks of installation are minimized, and the monthly fee is aligned
with sales volume. When sales volumes increase, so does the monthly
Performance Partnership fee; when sales volumes drop, the
Performance Partnership fee decreases as well. This ties the
success of Karakuri directly with the success of its customers, as
both companies share the risks - and benefits - of adopting
Karakuri's revolutionary, robotic kitchen technology.
