A common mistake people make when selecting ovens for their restaurant is not getting enough oven space to meet the demand and capacity of their restaurant. This can be detrimental to your business, because you can only make as many pizzas as your oven allows. During the busiest times of year such as the Superbowl, Friday nights and weekends, and Halloween, people do not want to wait a long time for their order. In order for your business to succeed, you have to meet the demand of your customers, which is why we wrote this blog to help you decide if a high capacity oven is right for your business!
Automation & Consistency
Some of the benefits of a large conveyor oven include automation and consistency. With these ovens, you can set the temperature and cook time and it will cook the same every single time. This requires less human labor and supervision, saving your business time and money. Plus, you can still count on the fact that you will have the same quality in each pizza.
Having a Backup
Running your business on just one oven puts you in a vulnerable position where you are susceptible to a mechanical failure or breakdown of your oven. If you do experience a breakdown, you will lose a lot of business if you don’t have a backup oven. In our experience, we’ve seen this happen before, and many pizza restaurants decide to order an additional oven so that they can stay open if anything goes wrong.
Energy Consumption
One of the biggest concerns when choosing ovens is energy consumption. If you’re worried about consuming too much energy with one high capacity oven or two ovens, opt for a more modern oven that has a standby mode and will save energy when you aren’t busy. Even after being in standby mode, they are instantly ready to perform when you need them.
