Asian Fast Food, National Chain and Franchise

Challenge:

In the early 1990’s, two independent restaurant owners came together as one company with an Asian niche. Now they are a publically traded company on NASDAQ. An elegant and widely recognizable brand, their chain offers full-service upscale dining in an Asian-inspired contemporary setting. 

Catering to large groups of business people, this restaurant chain is known for exceptional service, quick delivery, and a wide array of high quality traditional Chinese, Southeast Asian, and contemporary fusion cuisine. They also have a take-out option for busy people. 

This chain needed a way to extend the life of their oil to maintain the high quality of their delicate cuisine. As a publically traded company, keeping cost low and brand equity high was a balancing act. 

Their other concern was the safety of their employees. They did not want their employees manually filtering or lifting heavy containers for oil disposal. Their restaurants were typically very large scale seating – sometimes accommodating hundreds of people and serving meals at a very fast pace. 

RF Hunter Recommends:

This food chain standardized with the ECCO One restaurant oil filtration system, giving them the ability to filter their oil more quickly, efficiently, and safely.

Now they are able to filter restaurant oil daily without having to manually handle hot oil during filtration and disposal. This system also saves them time since the filtration takes minutes versus almost half an hour with a manual method.

They are also able to double the life of the oil and cut their costs in half.

Designed for high capacity, heavy duty oil filtration, the Ecco One is small in size, fits perfectly with smaller deep fryers, and keeps employees safe while saving money on oil waste.
