PC Tank in Luxembourg. En route to success with the iHexagon.

PC Tank’s ingredients for success in Luxembourg.

The PC Tank filling station chain operates a total of 24 stations in Luxembourg, all of them – regardless of size – known for great food. With their in-house brand, Gourmet Rapide, they've set a new standard on the market: customers can look forward to consistently high quality at every location. But success demands speed – without compromising on quality. After all, customers don't want to be kept waiting. So, the question is: how can new technology help optimize PC Tank processes even further?

Early morning at a small gas station in Differdange. The last few night owls mingle with the first few early birds. Fresh coffee, warm croissants, sandwiches... even this early, Antonio and his two co-workers (both named Elisa) have a lot to do. They never have to rush, though – full loads of food from their iHexagon and iCombi Pro cooking systems have them ready for anything. And both units can produce extra batches as needed in practically no time.
