MAINHO, innovation and vision in the professional kitchen equipment sector

Manel Marín Esteller,
CEO of MAINHO

Recognized as a solid reference in the hospitality equipment market, MAINHO continues to stand out for its blend of technology, expertise, and its ability to interpret the real needs of Horeca professionals. The company is entering a dynamic phase marked by new product launches and a more structured international expansion. 

What are the most significant innovations MAINHO has introduced recently?

At MAINHO, we have just launched the new MAX Series griddle, a development designed for both service technicians and end users. Its design includes a removable tray that allows easy access to the machine’s interior, making any technical intervention simple and hassle-free. In addition, we have maximized its performance. Every detail is conceived to make the most of every kilowatt generated, delivering superior efficiency and a truly professional cooking experience.

How do these new developments strengthen your position in the professional kitchen equipment market?

MAINHO is already a pioneer in hospitality equipment sales in Spain, especially in the fry-top segment thanks to our Eurocrom model, the most widely used by professionals in the burger and smash burger world. Alongside this, our volcanic stone barbecues remain true classics of the brand and a benchmark in the sector. With the launch of the new MAX Series griddle, we are expanding the range of solutions for our customers, offering more efficient, high-quality products to equip their kitchens with maximum reliability and performance.

MAINHO is expanding internationally. What prompted this step and which markets are you focusing on first?

MAINHO has been present in the European market for over two decades, with a strong foothold in countries like France, where we have consolidated our position. In recent years, participation in international trade fairs has opened new opportunities and strategic contacts, driving us to take the next step in our expansion. We are currently entering markets such as the Middle East, North Africa, and the United Kingdom, regions that value the quality and efficiency of our equipment and where we see great growth potential.

What strategic investments do you consider essential for MAINHO’s future growth?

Technology and artificial intelligence are undoubtedly key to making the leap into the new era of the market. Although in our sector they are not yet an immediate requirement, we know they are just around the corner, and we want to be ready. That said, we continue to trust the process that has brought us here. A strong human network ensures optimal sales and after-sales service, creating links between the factory, distribution, and support for the end customer. MAINHO is a family business that has grown thanks to teamwork and trust with our partners, and that essence will remain a fundamental part of our strategy.

Looking ahead with solid foundations

MAINHO’s evolution demonstrates how technological innovation, manufacturing quality and an international outlook can coexist with a business philosophy deeply rooted in people and long-lasting relationships with industry professionals. The new product launches and expanding markets reveal a clear trajectory. MAINHO looks to the future with ambition and awareness, while staying faithful to the technical culture and trust-based approach that have defined its success.
