Smartkitchen in collaboration with kitchen professionals
We have worked with kitchen professionals to develop better solutions for the food service industry for over a decade. Our goal is to make the busy day of the kitchen staff easier by automating routines. At the same time, productivity improves, and the environmental footprint is reduced. In our opinion, digital solutions are also a tool to facilitate the shortage of manpower in the industry.
It all started a decade ago
Matti Verkasalo, the founder of our company, realized from the experience he acquired from the wellbeing sector that digitalisation can improve customer experience and business processes. The same had already happened in the banking and insurance sector.
In the early 2010s, professional kitchens were completely dependent on paper and pen. And it is still largely. These ideas were the starting point when Ceruus Oy was founded in 2013. Later, it was decided to focus entirely on the food service industry. At the same time, Smart Kitchen trademark was introduced.
Sustainability
SmartKitchen helps its customers improve food safety, reduce food waste and energy consumption. At the same time, the environmental footprint left by the company is reduced. Together we solve the challenges of global sustainable development.
Of course, we also pay attention to environmental aspects and impacts in our own activities. We are responsible for our products throughout their life cycle. We ensure that environmental aspects are considered at each stage of the production chain. We always comply with the requirements of the laws and regulations in force in our operating countries (e.g. RoHS, WEEE, Packaging, Battery and Accumulator and REACH environmental directives).
Expertise
We are particularly proud that all measurements and recordings are made with wireless technology using the devices designed and manufactured by SmartKitchen. All data collected is processed and analyzed in SmartKitchen’s own cloud service with ensured data protection.
