Zummo is a global leader in professional fresh-juice and fruit-processing equipment, known for delivering superior product quality, operational efficiency, and long-term reliability in foodservice and retail environments. Designed and manufactured in Spain, Zummo solutions are built for commercial operations where freshness, consistency, and return on investment are critical. At the core of Zummo’s citrus juicers is a vertical, closed-chamber squeezing system that gently extracts juice while keeping peel oils, acids, and residues out of the final product. Unlike high-speed or rotative systems that crush the fruit, Zummo’s controlled-pressure process produces cleaner, sweeter, and brighter-colored juice, with a noticeably fresher taste. This technology also delivers higher juice yield per fruit, helping operators reduce waste and improve margins. Zummo equipment significantly reduces labor costs by fully automating the squeezing process. Manual cutting, pressing, and constant supervision are eliminated, allowing staff to focus on service while maintaining consistent output—making fresh juice programs scalable even in high-traffic locations. Complementing the citrus line, ISLA pineapple cutting machines extend Zummo’s fresh-fruit solutions by automating one of the most labor-intensive prep tasks in foodservice and retail. ISLA machines deliver fast, safe, and consistent pineapple processing, reducing labor, improving yield, and ensuring uniform presentation for fresh-cut programs. The Zummo range includes compact models like the Z06 for restaurants and cafés, as well as higher-capacity solutions such as the Z14 and Z40 for retail and high-volume operations. Together with ISLA, Zummo provides a complete fresh-fruit platform designed to increase efficiency, improve product quality, and deliver a strong, measurable ROI.
