Metos training services provide professional kitchens with tools and new perspectives

To ensure that customers get the most out of their investment, training is always part of the purchase of new equipment or a professional kitchen. But that's just the beginning of the learning process. "Metos' training service helps professional kitchens at all stages of their life cycle, with both minor and major issues," says Petri Simonen, Training and Kitchen Manager.

In the hectic everyday life of a kitchen, it is worth taking a moment to think about what could be done differently right now. How can you work more safely, more efficiently, and more comfortably? 

New perspectives, new thinking

Training services offer expert help in developing your kitchen's operations in a wide range of challenges. 

 – Training often brings up things that are simple but important. Things that we don't have time to think about properly and put into practice when we are busy. Training offers new perspectives and tools for this, Petri emphasizes.

The customers’ needs are decisive

Training is always tailored to each customer's needs and resources, and it is often a collaborative effort.
– Training can last an hour or several days, and it can be arranged at the customer's premises, at Metos' headquarters, or using Teams. During the training, various manufacturing methods and production processes can be tested and developed. Goal-oriented work challenges us to identify areas for improvement and gives us the energy to implement them, Petri explains. 

All Metos trainers have extensive experience working in various professional kitchens, and training can be arranged throughout Finland in many different languages. 

Waste, energy savings, labor shortages?

The training focuses on the issues that are most important to each customer. Sometimes it may be the operation of a single device, sometimes energy savings in an entire process. And in the kitchen, almost everything is connected to everything else.

– When the capacities of the equipment are used more sensibly and diversely, processes become more efficient, food quality improves, waste is reduced, water and energy are saved, and at the same time, staff time is freed up, Petri explains.

Training gives you more value for your money

Petri emphasizes that professional kitchen appliances are, by nature, very durable. That is why it is worth taking good care of them and learning how to make full use of their advanced, intelligent functions. 

He urges people to get in touch if professional kitchen training would be useful – for example, when there is a change in staff.

– People often think that training takes time away from everyday kitchen work. But the savings are surprisingly many times greater, as shared observations speed up the process and improve the quality of the food. Our trainers bring with them knowledge of the equipment, extensive expertise in the field, and proven training methods. And a desire to help! 

Metos training services offer professional kitchen training that can be tailored to the customer's needs and resources for different stages of the kitchen's life cycle. The starting point is often the equipment perspective, but the benefits extend to the entire production process and its efficiency – and often also to job satisfaction and well-being.
