The client, a Chinese entrepreneur who moved to the Netherlands, started a restaurant specializing in authentic dumplings, famous for thin wrappers and generous fillings appealing to both the local Chinese community and Dutch customers. As the restaurant grew and expansion plans emerged, the client experimented with buns, producing them manually to test market demand. Positive feedback encouraged larger-scale production. Facing increasing orders and limited manpower, the client leveraged their experience with ANKO’s HLT-700XL machine and introduced the SD-97W Automatic Encrusting and Forming Machine, efficiently increasing output, maintaining consistent quality, and offering a wider variety of products for in-store dining and retail.
Kibe (Kibbeh) is one of the basic cuisines in the Middle East, so the high demand has made client’s business booming. However, his employees couldn't meet the production requirement and the quality was unstable. To solve the problem, the client has contacted ANKO for food processing equipment solutions.
The client has two fishing vessels and two fish processing plants to process the six-ton daily catch. One plant is dedicated to mince fish into fish paste, and the other plant is for the production of fish balls and fish products. He purchased a HLT-700XL Multipurpose Filling & Forming Machine and a SD-97W Automatic Encrusting and Forming Machine from ANKO. The HLT-700XL is used for producing deep-fried fish snacks — a new offering made of springy fish paste with a crispy wrapper. And the SD-97W is for making stuffed fish balls. The client's new plant covers 10,000 square meters and employs around 50 people. Their products are mainly sold to local supermarkets in Indonesia such as Carrefour.
The client runs meat processing business which has long history and gains high market share. Now it is the turn that the second generation entrepreneur takes over the company. With current frozen equipment and packaging machinery, they would like to increase efficiency and develop other snacks with product line expansion. ANKO's machinery features multifunction. Take the Automatic Encrusting and Forming Machine as an example, various kinds of dough and filling are suitable for the machine; through parameter adjustment, a wide range of products can be made with one machine. For manufacturers, it definitely a worthy investment to receive a high price/performance ratio.
