In June 2025, Lonkia successfully delivered and installed a 1.5 ton/hour french fries production line in Egypt, helping a local frozen food manufacturer improve product quality. This fully automatic frozen french fries processing line covers every step from potato washing to final packaging, ensuring high productivity and consistent quality for both domestic and export markets.
Customer Background & Project Requirements
Our client from Egypt is the owner of a newly established frozen french fries factory. As a new player in the industry, they wanted to start operations with a fully automatic french fries production line to ensure product consistency, meet export standards, and quickly gain a foothold in the competitive frozen food market. With rising consumer demand for high-quality frozen french fries, they needed a fully automatic french fries production line that could deliver:
- Stable output of 1.5 tons/hour
- Consistent shape and size of french fries
- Efficient freezing and packaging for long shelf life
- Compliance with international food hygiene standards
After several months of research, the customer contacted Lonkia in March 2025. By June, the order was finalized, and our engineering team prepared a customized solution to meet their production goals.
