Foster - leaders in professional food refrigeration, and Gamko - experts in professional drinks cooling presented their newest innovations at the International Host exhibition in Milan, this week. The show was over five days, attracting more than 150,000 visitors, 40% of whom came from outside Italy; for those five days “HOST 2015 made Milan the capital of hospitality”.

Foster Refrigerator and Gamko joined forces at HOST 2015 to highlight their flexible professional back-bar and commercial refrigeration equipment, and have hailed the event a huge success.

Demonstrating their breadth of range Foster showcased a variety of products including its new FlexDrawer and Multideck with energy-saving doors models. Gamko’s product line-up was represented on the stand with its eye-catching Flexbar modular bar system and energy efficient ECO-Line E3 models for cooling bottled drinks, alongside beer taps and energy efficient keg coolers.

Foster’s Export Manager Rebecca Vincent said: “This was a very successful international show for both brands. It’s a great show that attracts many of our customers and business partners from around the world. Our stand was very busy, and it was great to meet with everyone from across the globe.
