How Bizerba slicers support the delicatessen business

Where perfection is non-negotiable, you will find Bizerba machines. In particular, we found our slicers in the delicatessen store of Antonio Schillinger in Merano. Here, dried ham such as South Tyrolean speck and prosciutto crudo are transformed into perfect slices. We met Antonio for a brief chat.

1
Could you briefly tell us how our slicers have changed everyday life in your delicatessen?
Antonio Schillinger |

Of course! The Bizerba slicer really does make a huge difference. The precision we now have is impressive. Our customers appreciate the even, perfect slices of sausage, ham and cheese that we can offer thanks to your machines. But it's not just about the look. The quality of the slices has an impact on freshness and aroma, which is essential for delicatessen products.

How important is cutting precision and variety to you when presenting and selling your delicatessen products?
Antonio |

Very important! Slicing precision plays a huge role, especially when it comes to high-quality food. Thanks to the infinitely variable cutting thicknesses of the Bizerba machines, we can fulfill our customers' wishes exactly. Wafer-thin or even thicker slices. This enables us to present and sell our delicatessen products perfectly. It contributes greatly to customer satisfaction and sets us apart from many other stores.

Care and cleaning is an important issue. How do you rate it?
Antonio |

Easy cleaning is just as important to us as cutting performance. Your machines with the easily removable parts are fantastic in this respect. They can be cleaned quickly. That saves us a lot of time in day-to-day operation. Even lifting the machine briefly to wipe out underneath is child's play. This enables us to comply with the strict hygiene standards that are very important in our business.

Has the intelligent motor control influenced energy consumption in your business?
Antonio |

We have noticed that the energy consumption of our slicers has dropped significantly. That's good for my wallet - and for our beautiful planet.

Finally, Antonio, what would you recommend to other delicatessen owners who are considering upgrading their equipment?
Antonio |

Oh, that's my little secret - I can't give away my tricks to the competitors! (laughs) 

Sounds good?
