Our turnkey package covers the complete line from raw material reception to packaged finished product. The same modular platform supports potato chips, frozen fries, potato flakes, tomato paste, ketchup or IQF mixed vegetables.
All wetted parts are food-grade SS304 stainless steel. Equipment is pre-assembled and trial-run at our partner facility before container shipment to Africa, where our engineers handle installation and commissioning.
Variable potato & tomato sizes/quality from African farms require flexible peeling, sorting and grading equipment β engineered for irregular raw material, not standardised European produce.
Single line, multiple products β chips, fries, flakes (potato) or paste, ketchup, IQF (tomato). Switch between products as season and market demand shift.
Individual Quick Freezing for fries and mixed vegetables β preserves cell structure, minimises ice crystal damage and delivers premium-grade frozen products with 12+ month shelf life.
Cold-break or hot-break extraction with aseptic filling into bag-in-drum (220 L) or aseptic pouches β 28Β°Brix industrial paste ready for export and B2B sales.
Heat-recovery on fryers, multi-effect evaporators on paste lines, and energy-efficient blast freezers reduce per-ton energy cost β critical in Africa's high-energy-cost markets.
Simple maintenance design with standardised wear parts. Vezora's local Spare Parts vertical stocks belts, knives, screens and bearings β minimising downtime in seasonal operations.
