For the third time in a row, HOBART GmbH, one of the world market leaders in commercial ware washing, was elected ‘Best of Market’ on the evening before the opening of the INTERNORGA, the major international trade show for the catering industry.

Since 2012, the B&L Mediengesellschaft has given this significant annual award based on the results of an online survey among the readers of the trade magazines regarding the products and concepts of the industry partners of the away-from-home market.

More than 1,447 readers of the trade journals ‘GVmanager’, ‘first class’, ‘24 Stunden Gastlichkeit’ and ‘street FOODbusiness’ cast their votes. The Offenburg-based company received the award in the ‘energy efficiency’ category primarily for the innovative efficiency concept of the HOBART flight-type dishwasher, which excels by a particular high level of economy.

The efficiency concept comprises optimized cleaning, exhaust air, and drying management of the HOBART dishwashers, resulting in a significant reduction of operating costs and prevention of energy losses.

“We are very happy to receive this important prize for the third time after 2016 and 2017. For HOBART, energy efficiency is a high priority in all areas. It allows us to provide ecological equipment while reducing our customers’ operating costs”, says Manfred Kohler, Vice President / General Manager for Sales & Manufacturing of HOBART GmbH.
