[Testo 270 Case Study] Sagami Holdings Co., Ltd.

Introduction of frying oil deterioration testers in 200 stores! We present a case study that achieved cost reduction through the standardization of disposal criteria.

We would like to introduce a case where Sagami Holdings Co., Ltd. implemented the measuring device "testo 270," which quantifies the degradation level of frying oil. Previously, AV test strips were used to measure the oil daily, but there was a possibility of variation in visual judgment depending on the measurer. This product not only allows for the degradation level to be confirmed numerically but also represents the condition of the frying oil in three colors (green, orange, red) based on the measurement values. It has been evaluated that even part-time staff can easily make disposal judgments, leading to the decision to implement it across all stores (approximately 200 stores). As a result of the implementation, the frequency of oil disposal at each store stabilized, achieving the intended standardization. This has helped maintain a consistent taste for the fried foods offered and realize cost reductions. [Case Overview] ■ Purpose of Implementation: Standardization of frying oil disposal criteria ■ Key Considerations in Equipment Selection: Ease of measurement for anyone in each store ■ Management Standard: Evaluated as appropriate with a TPM of 19% *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
