Wong Wong Bakery has installed a two pocket Koenig Mini Rex dough divider and rounder,supplied and installed from European Process Plant Ltd (EPP), to simplify processes and aid productivity of its Chinese buns. With all baked goods created on site, Wong Wong Bakery cater to in-store customers as well as Chinese supermarkets through wholesaling.
Established in the heart of Chinatown in Manchester, Wong Wong Bakery has been serving customers for over 20 years with decorative cakes and an assortment of sweet and savoury buns using authentic flavours, such as roast pork and black sesame. The buns are baked following a traditional Chinese recipe, providing a unique light, soft texture.
As a family business, Wong Wong Bakery employ and serve much of the Chinese community in Manchester. Lin Chan, the manager, comments, “We previously used an older piece of equipment from a Taiwanese manufacturer. The size of dough it produced wasn’t the size that we needed, and it didn’t produce neat round individual pieces. We were aware of the benefits of a Koenig Mini Rex and since its installation, have been extremely impressed by the consistency in product sizing, ease of use and increased productivity which the machinery has contributed to.”The consistent product sizing has enabled Wong Wong Bakery to remove the duty of not having to cut up the dough themselves, and refocus duties to other areas in production, simplifying the processes and contributing to improved quality of the buns.
Lin notes,“The EPP team organised a day of training following the successful installation of the Mini Rex. Due to the support from the EPP team, we all felt so confident using the machinery that we were in production the next day! We would highly recommend EPP and are happy to continue our relationship with them.”
“We were thrilled to provide Wong Wong Bakery with a new Koenig Mini Rex, which is delivering consistent dough pieces and saving both time and labour,” says Ged McBride, EPP’s Area Sales Manager. “As an innovative machine celebrated for its precision and efficiency, the Koenig Mini Rex provides the perfect solution for Wong Wong Bakery’s requirements, providing gentle handling for the soft and light dough without harming its texture.We’re committed to supporting Wong Wong Bakery achieve their goals through all equipment and servicing needs.”
