Kitchen for several
thousand meals per day

Based on feedback from the previous year and new ideas from the chef, the team conducts meticulous planning with the customer months before the event begins. Using 3D animations, logistics of delivery, cooling, storage and disposal are coordinated precisely. Highly efficient processes in the kitchen are defined, played through and optimised by our professionals. Telia then delivers the entire kitchen and hands it over to the customer, ready to cook.

Extensive back up
for the hardware

16 hours a day for 16 days: The kitchen team must be able to rely on the kitchen technology working smoothly, even under extremely challenging conditions. Each Telia device is tested before use and after installation on site to maximise reliability. In total, Telia delivers 10 articulated truckloads to Oktoberfest, including spare parts that are ready to go immediately in case of malfuntion.

24hr Service with
Technicians on site

In order to safeguard reliable operation, two technicians are permanently on site in case any issue were to arise. Telia technicians work in two-shift operation so that the crockery circuit always runs synchronously with the output of the kitchen. Two additional Telia employees are on site from 2am to oversee intensive cleaning of the dishwasher to ensure smooth operation the following day.

»Passionate quality requires attention to
detail. Telia are a reliable partner who
carry through on their promises.«
