Market Outlook

Quality

Rectangular fry pots on our fryers promote random
tumbling and turbulent action for more evenly
products and more satisfi ed customers.

Cold zones below the heating units reduce
cracklings and greatly improve shortening quality
and food fl avor.

Integrated cooking rack system on specifi c models
lets you quickly and easily move food from breading
station to fryer to holding cabinet with minimal
food handling.

High-effi ciency heating units with quick heat recovery

and various melt modes keep shortening from

breaking down too quickly and being absorbed by

food, enabling you to cook larger volumes without

sacrifi cing quality or consistency.

Food Quality
That Sets You Apart

As a mature product category, fried foods are

widely available to every consumer.  is means

that in order to carve out and defend a pro table

niche in the marketplace, food quality is essential.

For instance, while a potential customer can

get French fries anywhere, many will go out

of their way for those they perceive as the best

tasting and best value. Henny Penny open fryers

ensure that customer favorites like French fries,

onion rings and fried seafood are all prepared

crisp and delicious. And our industry-leading

pressure fryers allow for faster cooking at lower

temperatures, sealing in the moisture and natural

 avor of entrees like fried chicken for

an unbeatably appetizing menu.

Henny Penny has devoted

more time and energy to

the re nement of our frying

technology than any other

foodservice manufacturer, so

you can be con dent in your

food’s quality, c o n s istency,

and lasting customer appeal.

Simplifi ed Labor Solutions

When it comes to the success of your

foodservice operation, you rely on your

workforce as much as your equipment.

A large part of Henny Penny’s

commitment to helping you prepare the

best-looking,

making sure that our pressure and open

fryers are designed for the greatest ease

of operation.  is means you’ll spend

less time training new employees, and

you can have more con dence in your

labor costs as well as worker frustration, making
your downtime almost negligible.

Henny Penny’s shortening shuttle makes
shortening disposal safer and more effi cient by
helping you transfer used shortening out of the
fryer and easily remove it.

Labor

The Auto Lift option on our open fryers lowers
and raises loads automatically, improving both
consistency and effi ciency. This can be invaluable
in foodservice operations where employees
are often in charge of both food preparation and
waiting on customers.

Integration of strategically placed cold zones,
condensation traps, built-in fi ltration, and advanced
heating units that better regulate temperature all
help to extend shortening life and lower the costs
of shortening replacement and disposal.

By using a higher grade of steel and
stringent quality control standards,
fryers have greater durability and are guaranteed
by a 7-year fry pot warranty as well as a 2-year
warranty on all other parts.

The combined savings from faster cook times,
more effi cient use of labor, decreased downtime,
and lower energy bills means lifecycle payback
in 1-2 years.
