Global Kitchen Introduces Innovative Meal Support Solutions

Global Kitchen Co., Ltd., based in Minato, Tokyo, is set to present its advanced meal support service, 'Magono Te Kitchen,' at the upcoming CareTEX Tokyo 2026 event. This expo is scheduled from February 25 to 27, 2026, at the Tokyo Big Sight, West Exhibition Hall, 4th floor. Their booth will feature practical demonstrations with Hoshizaki’s rewarming cabinets, showcasing the company's solutions to the chronic staffing shortages and cooking burdens faced by caregiving facilities.

The challenge of inadequate staffing in kitchens at caregiving facilities is a pressing issue, exacerbated by temporary increases in workload due to events, meals for specific occasions, and peak times. While fully outsourcing kitchen operations is appealing, many facilities are hesitant due to the psychological and operational barriers and prefer to incorporate external services for essential needs while maintaining some homemade elements.

To address these concerns, Global Kitchen is proud to offer a flexible meal support service designed to adapt gradually to the needs of these facilities, promoting the idea that services can be utilized only when necessary and for the required amount. 'Magono Te Kitchen' allows for spot usage and partial integration, catering not only to regular meals but also to event-specific and modified meals, easing cooking burdens while ensuring consistent meal service.

Featured Highlights at the Expo

Visitors to the Global Kitchen booth can expect a comprehensive showcase that includes:

1. Ingredient Display: A selection of around 500 types of ingredients will be plated for tasting, including regular meals, soft foods, and meal variations suitable for specific dietary needs. Attendees will have a unique opportunity to sample dishes from 'Magono Te Kitchen.'

2. Display of Disposable Containers and Heating Equipment: Efficiency-boosting equipment and materials for meal service will be presented, aiming to streamline dining operations in caregiving facilities.

3. Demonstration of Reheating Cabinets: The flow of providing cooked frozen ingredients will be illustrated using actual equipment. This demonstration will provide insights into operational efficiency and stable kitchen management.

In addition to the exhibitions, Global Kitchen will conduct related seminars, further elucidating the innovative approaches to kitchen operations in light of labor shortages. The seminar, titled 'Sustaining Meal Service Amidst Staffing Shortages' will showcase real-life examples of facilities that continue to operate efficiently despite staffing challenges.
