MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009

ETL Certification

After more than one year, our company has been finally certified by the ETL -Intertek.

In that case, our orange juicers mod. F-50, F-50-A, and F-Compact has got that certification for the US market.

We are sure our American customers will be fully satisfied, and we hope the sales in USA increase a bit more next year.

A new website has been joined

A new proof of the international development and presence of Frucosol in the world is the fact that a new dealer has decided to include our products in the web.
In this case we travel to Romania, and the company is Brill Catering, in the Cluj area. They think our juicers are one of the best machines in its range and this is why they have decided to include our range within your products.
As always, I leave a link at the right of the blog, in the "Friends" site.

CIH, Comercio Internacional de Hotelaria

A new website has been added to our friends; in that case, we are talking about CIH, a company based in Portugal that is offering our products in our neighbour country.
They are present in the most important Trade Fairs in Portugal, so we are sure they are going to make a good job.

Two new videos

Two new models of juicer machines have been added to our range of juicers: the model Frucosol Freezer and the model Frucosol Self Service.

Both machines are thought to be installed in supermarkets, hotels, buffets, and places like those.

In both cases, the machines are installed with a stainless steel cabinet; inside, there is a plastic bin where the peels are stored, so we have a great autonomy.

If you wish to receive more information about it, just send an e-mail to export@frucosol.com or contact us in the phone +34 941 147 653.

FoodFest 2008

Those are some pictures our friend Tanel, from Eltermo, has sent us in the last days. The photos belong to the last FoodFest 2008 Exhibition, that took place in Tallin, Estonia.

There, visitors could check the advantages of using Frucosol products every day, as we are talking about machines that will save time and cost in some cases, and increase our profit in others.

New Friend Website

A new website has been added to our friends webs, that is the, the Canadian http://www.coutellerieimpeccable.com/, from the company Vaisloc, our dealer for the Quebec area.
In that website you will see information about the cutlery polishers; according to Mr. Giguere, a new version in English will be ready soon.

Successful presence of Frucosol in Hostelco

About two weeks ago it took place the Hostelco Show in which Frucosol was present as Exhibitors.
According to the organization, more than 2300 Exhibitors from many countries showed their products in more than 100.000 m2.

All the visitors who came near the 48m2 Frucosol booth could see all the products manufactured by Frucosol: orange juicers, cutlery polishers, glass polishers, decarbonisers, and above all the new machines developed by our firm, that is, an oil filter machine, a potato peeler and the new 2 juicers, the Frucosol Freezer and the Frucosol Self-Service.

In this entry you could see some pictures of the booth, and I have added a link to the right side of the blog (in the "videos" point) in order you can see a small video of the Show.

In the next days, we will introduce more information about the new machines, videos, and so on.

It was february this year when I started to make this blog; however, I wouldn't make it whithout the idea my friend Renato Odar from Lima gave me. Thanks to the interview he made me, I discover the world of the blogs, so I decided to make one, so I have to say THANKS to Renato. You can visit his blog at http://industrias-alimentarias.blogspot.com/

Holidays

It is summer and logically there will be some days in which our company will be closed.
In any case, we won't be as most of the companies that close about 15 or 21 days; we think the fast service is one of the most important things nowadays, and we like to take care of our customers.
Then, the only days we will be closed up to the end of the year are:

25th of July: Spain National Holiday.
15th of August: National Holiday
1st of September: Local Holiday
8th of December: National Holiday
25th of December: Christmas Day

The last week of August (from 25 to 31) we have our local Holiday Week, but our factory won't close. That week just the 50 % of our staff will work.
If you have any doubt about it, do not hesitate in contacting us.

New Websites of the group

We have just launched two new websites of the Frucosol group: www.secadoradecopas.com and www.tutrabajoemprendedor.com .
The titles are in Spanish because they are thought to catch people to sell our products; the first one is completely dedicated to our latest product, the glass dryer and polisher machine, as we have checked that since the first day, people is enchanted with this machine.
The second one is thought for those people that are looking for a new way of earning some money; we offer possibilities to work every day selling our products, as we have checked (in our experience) that there are many options and the success is almost a reality.
Do not doubt it and visit our new web sites.

Grillfest 2008 in Estonia

Just a few words to present the great job Tanel made last weekend of 7th and 8th of June.
There he did a very good job; in this case, he add a healthy oportunity to the visitors of the festival providing them with the consumption of orange juice. Indeed, they squeezed about 250 kgs of oranges in one day!!!
Then, as always, it is better some images than thousands of words...

NRA 08

As promised, I show you some pictures of the last Exhibition Frucosol exhibited their products, the NRA (National Restaurant Association) of Chicago.
It was a successful Exhibition in which people enjoyed a lot with our cutlery polishers (still new for them), the glass polisher (without any doubt the "star product") and our orange juicers.
As you can see in the pictures, we had the help of Mr. Edward Eldredge, the Orange Man. Any of you can visit his website www.orangeman.biz and purchase directly any of our juicers.
As well, from this moment onwards, you will be able to download our videos and technical files from this blog. The videos are link to Youtube.com and the technical files to our website.

Some videos of our machines

Successful Exhibition in Chicago

There is no much time since we have come back from the NRA Show in Chicago,and without checking the selling leads and the business we can get from them, we can say wihtout any doubt that the Show has been very successful, many visitors and we counted with the help of the Orange Man...I think I will be able to put some pictures in the following days.

NRA SHOW

This week Frucosol will be attending a new Show, the NRA (National Restaurant Association) in Chicago. The Show will take place in that beautiful city from 17th to 20th of May.
There, Frucosol will show their famous orange juicer machines, cutlery polishers, glass dryer and polishers and the grease remover.
We will count with the help of Mr. Edward Eldrege, manager of the successful company Orange Man, in Florida, so we are sure the Show will be very interesting.
You can find more information about it in their website: http://www.restaurant.org/show/

Last Exhibitions in Madrid and Singapore

2 Exhibitions in less than 15 days.....it seemed a difficult task but we got it. From 14th to 25th of May Frucosol has been present in two leader Shows of the Horeca business: Gourmet in Madrid, and FHA in Singapore. This last one was a mystery as it was the first time we will be there, but it really become a successful Fair: having one of the best booths of the Show; hundreds of people were impressed by Frucosol cutlery dryer and polishers, the glass polisher and of course our orange juicers. Restaurants, bars, hotels, caterings, hospitals, dealers, and even exhibitors had a lot of questions about our machines. My partners Jorge Lorente, Maria Teresa Deza, Fernando Deza and myself had a lot of job trying to explain all the advantages of our machines.
As alwasy, I will show you some pictures of these 2 important Shows.
But there is no more time; in about 7 days, we will be on the air again to fly to Chicago to attend one of the most important Shows of the US, the NRA. In that case, we will present an important innovation: the ETL certification of our orange juicers.

Those two Exhibitions are very important: the first one is one of the most important ones in Spain, and the second one has a strong influence on the Asian Market.

Estonia, one of our best customers

Today I would like to present some pictures from different places in Estonia; one of our best customers, Mr. Tanel Kriisa from the company Eltermo, is making a very good job there. As a proof of that, and as it is said, one image is better than 1000 words.
The pictures are from places like a fitness club, a shopping mall, a metal factory, a gypsy and middle age restaurant, etc...
