The customized solution that will be expanded throughout this year standardizes operations, plans flows, increases food safety for preschool and school children

Macromex, one of the main players in the Romanian food industry, together with Next Root Management Systems, a HoReCa consultancy provider, is launching a solution aimed at optimizing food flows and safety, but also at bringing healthy food to kindergarten and school canteens, targeting 40 units of beneficiary education, until the end of 2023.

"I want every child who eats in school canteens to enjoy the best quality dishes, prepared according to high standards, under maximum food safety conditions. For our HoReCa partners, we want to bring more productivity and efficiency through our portfolio of products, recipes, advice and technology.

And all these things cannot be achieved, neither for the children nor for the providers, if the respective location, in the present case – the canteen, does not have a planning of the work flows, an efficiency and a standardization of the operations. For this reason, we have joined forces with partners from Next Root Management System, to offer a complete service, for the benefit of the generations who are now in kindergarten or on the benches of schools", says Albert Davidoglu, CEO, Macromex.

Through the project dedicated to kindergartens and schools, care and interest in healthy eating can be transferred outside the home, in the places where children and students spend the most time, during a week. The solution includes the verification of raw materials, along with an operational system adapted to each location, for added value for all these educational institutions and more safety for students

"Out of the desire to contribute to the improvement of education services, enter into a collaboration that aims to streamline, standardize operations, plan flows and food safety for production and storage spaces in kindergartens and school canteens. Our objective, for 2023, is to realize 40 such projects", says Dragoș Panait, founder of Next Root Management Systems.

In this partnership, Next Root Management Systems will ensure, for each location, the optimal definition of kitchen flows, storage and related spaces, the standardization of kitchen procedures, management, inventory and recipes, the efficiency of work spaces for operational flow and raw materials, standardization of cleaning procedures and training.
