Hoshizaki's commercial ice-makers and ice-dispensers that maximize the flavor of drinks

Among the products on display, ice-makers were one of the main attractions. Hoshizaki ice has the strengths of transparency and slow melting. Its special feature lies in the ability to create ice in a unique shape that preserves the flavor and quality of drinks.

Hoshizaki refrigerators are becoming increasingly popular in the Southeast Asian market for commercial refrigerators. They are characterized by the high effectiveness of their cooling functions, with refrigerators capable of cooling down to -6 to 12°C and freezers to -23 to -7°C. Durability also meets Japanese quality standards.

At THAIFEX 2023, the company announced a new hood-type dishwasher model, the “HW-600B3”. Its development and manufacturing were managed by one of the world's leading dishwasher manufacturers, a Hoshizaki Group company. In addition, it was revealed that a new imported model of the undercounter dishwasher will be released in Thailand next year.

As an importer and distributor of Hoshizaki brand commercial kitchen appliances, the purpose of the exhibition was to create customer awareness and to provide a channel for displaying the products being sold and will be launched in the future. The company also expects to connect directly with customers about their demands, which will lead to product enhancement.

We interviewed Mr. Yamakawa, MD of Hoshizaki (Thailand), about his impression of the exhibit.

"We feel that our booth allowed us to meet directly with our target customers and exchange information, enabling us to recommend products that meet the real needs of our users. We were also able to provide customers with the opportunity to actually see and touch the various forms of ice that can be made with Hoshizaki ice-makers, which helped them to feel more comfortable in their purchasing decisions. This event was a valuable opportunity for us, as we do not usually display actual machines. We believe that we were able to help people not only consider purchases of the machines, but also come up with ideas for drink menus. We believe that this event helped customers feel more familiar with Hoshizaki as a brand. We would like to link the feedbacks we received from customers at this event to future product development and improvements.“
