PFR adds further Icarus by Zesti chargrills with extended warranty

Pro Foodservice Reps has announced greater protection for the Icarus by Zesti electric chargrill range in the UK.

The chargrills were made available earlier this year, with 600mm, 900mm and 1200mm freestanding versions supplied through the company. PFR, which is Zesti’s exclusive European import partner, has also now introduced 600mm and 900mm drop-in chargrill options.

Andy Piggin, director at Pro Foodservice Reps, said: “These products raise the bar for electric grill cooking, with precise control of intense heat exceeding 500°C and an innovative patented vaporising hearth system that enhances flavour while minimising grease build-up.

“Every chef that has tried the kit in our showroom and training centre has commented on the taste, not to mention unmatched efficiency, safety and ease of maintenance. The high temperature and true natural flames of the Icarus technology gives the meat an amazing natural flavour, but also tenderises meat in a way that traditional gas grills can’t match.

“We’re pleased to extend the range for the UK market with the addition of drop-in models, as well as a three-year parts and labour UK warranty that confirms the quality of these revolutionary grills.”

Pro Foodservice Reps Showcasing Hatco Collection at HostMilano

Pro Foodservice Showcasing Hatco Collection at HostMilano

Pro Foodservice Reps (PFR) will be in attendance at HostMilano, joining its factory partner Hatco to connect UK buyers with the Hatco range of hot holding and cooking technology.

The PFR team will be on the Hatco stand in Italy, demonstrating its key products and solutions including induction technology, retractable mount heat lamps, warming drawers and TQ3 range of high-speed toasters.

Among its innovations, Hatco’s decorative heat lamps are available in a range of shade styles, colours and finishes to suit all venues, with an adjustable up and down feature using Hatco’s patented straight cord design, which eliminates potential hygiene issues.

The TQ3 range of toasters offers faster toasting, a robust build and additional performance features, ideal for busy catering environments including hotel buffets, alongside a range of food warming and holding technologies.

Andy Piggin, Managing Director of Pro Foodservice Reps, said: “Hatco is a global leader in hot holding and has had a presence in the UK since the 1990s, so the brand is well known in the UK market. We all know the scale of HostMilano, so this will be another opportunity for PFR to reinforce the breadth and quality of the range to those UK buyers making the trip to Italy.

“PFR is an extension of the factories that we work with, helping to grow their brands here in the UK. Our primary purpose is to be the local sales force for our manufacturers and bring well informed information from them to the UK dealer community. It makes sense that we connect with those dealers and end users at the world’s biggest foodservice show.”

The UK’s only foodservice equipment manufacturers’ rep group, Pro Foodservice Reps was founded in 2014 by joint owners and director, Andy Piggin and Ross Gibson. Its US-style model gives overseas manufacturers access to the UK market via an existing team of industry experts, whilst selling only via distributors and keeping product costs to the end user competitive.

Hatco is one of 12 brands in the PFR portfolio, alongside American Metalcraft, Barfly, Baselite, Escali, FWE, Icarus, Mercer Culinary, Ovention, Puracycle, Spidocook and Tribeca FSP.

Andy Piggin adds: “HostMilano is always a busy show and we’re expecting no different this year. It will be fantastic to see old friends and make new contacts.”
