“We look forward to the NRA show every year because it gives us the chance to meet with the dealers, consultants, food directors and chefs who use our equipment every day,” said Todd Blair, Director of Marketing for Hobart Food Equipment Group. “This year we can’t wait to unveil for the first time at the NRA show the ITW Kitchen Experience, which allows foodservice professionals to observe the breadth of our offering across our family of premium brands and product categories, all in a kitchen environment. It’s an opportunity for us to share with our customers our ability to provide greater value at a lower total cost of ownership by being a single source for high-performance, energy-efficient equipment as well as installation and maintenance.”

Also highlighted will be Hobart Service, the only nationwide, factory-trained service network dedicated to commercial food equipment installation and maintenance.

VersaOven to be Showcased

Baxter, the brand recognized for superior, durable baking and cooking equipment, will showcase a completely new kind of oven at this year’s show—the VersaOven. Providing a unique level of versatility, speed and simplification for busy kitchens, the VersaOven combines the best features of convection, rotisserie and combi ovens into an easy-to-use, all-in-one, self-cleaning oven that can save kitchens time, money, space and headaches.

Highlighting products for industrial commissaries to the dynamic independent restaurant, Hobart provides the complete line of food preparation equipment for today’s busy kitchens. The company’s Best in Class mixers and heavy-duty slicers, as well as its commercial food processors, will all be shown at the NRA Show 2018. Also on display will be Hobart’s medium-duty, automatic slicer.

Rated overall Best-in-Class by customers, dealers and consultants for 17 consecutive years (Foodservice Equipment & Supplies magazine), resource-saving Hobart commercial dishwashers will be on display at this year’s show, with the CLeN conveyor dishwasher taking center stage. The CLeN features industry-leading technology like Drain Water Energy Recovery and Automatic Soil Removal to clean dishes and kitchen ware in less time and at a lower cost of operation.

Patented LED display doors ensure lower energy consumption while showcasing merchandise in the best possible light. Additionally, the Traulsen glycol prep table, best-in-class blast chillers, Energy Star reach-in and compact refrigerators, commercial milk cooler, wine refrigerator and pizza prep refrigerator will also be on display. Visitors can also get a first-hand glimpse of the all-new, optional bare tube coil technology with finless coil design that virtually eliminates the need to clean condenser coils, saving kitchen operators in maintenance time and potential costs related to premature compressor failure and replacement.

Vulcan, the brand chefs and operators look to for top-quality, energy-efficient cooking products, will for the third year running feature equipment and technology that is being recognized with a Kitchen Innovation Award. Available on Vulcan electric generator-based steamers, Vulcan will feature SonicSafe, a technology that makes scale problems evaporate.
