The Thermogo team

The end of 2014 was hectic as we were preparing for the new year, we completely forgot to mention our two new trucks that are now serving Hamilton's community.

This past September, our Thermogo team was proud to deliver two custom designed 6 series multi-temperature trucks to VON Hamilton's Meals on Wheels program. The trucks are currently delivering hot meals and frozen meals bundles to Hamilton's in need and growing elderly population. 

''The trucks will really improve the quality and the reach'' says David Gucci, executive director of VON meals on wheels programs to CHCH news. ''This is a step forward.''

Keep up the good work VON Hamilton!

It has already been a year since Meals on Wheels Chatham-Kent / St Andrew's Residence decided to ordering their own multi-temperature Thermogo. The first vehicle in Canada since the launch in January 2014. It is with thoroughness and attention,worthy of Solpak values, ​​that we evaluated with MOW Chatham-Kent the overall delivery issues and decided on the Thermogo 6 series solution, including a custom designed of 30% oven space with baskets that can accommodate 340- 21 oz meal tray and 70% chilled / frozen for the delivery of fresh or frozen prepared meals and transportation of vaccines during their home vaccination campaign. A poster holder has also been added to the rear of the vehicle in addition to the sponsors’  logos to promote and increase the visibility of the events of the residence.

A year later, the truck provides home delivery of hot meals, during lunch and dinner time, every day of the week. Users, who are volunteers and coordinator in the kitchen , as well as operations managers are still very satisfied with the solution and confirms that they have never been so confident with the quality and safety of their food delivered to their growing customer base.

Thank you very much MOW Chatham-Kent for your trust and feedback!

Welcome to our new team member at Solpak, Vanessa Tran, a recent graduate in Finance from John Molson School of business.

In addition to handling the financial and administrative side of the business, she will be responsible for the coordination of the Thermogo line.

We are convinced that Vanessa’s energy and good humour, in addition to all her talents, will be appreciated by all her colleagues and our customers.

Welcome Vanessa :-)

The Insert series Thermogo oven has now been installed in the Association Bénévole Côte-de-Beaupré’s new minivan, facilitating the delivery of hot meals to their clients.

Mme Tremblay and her team work diligently and also received significant community support to be able to acquire a vehicle in order to improve the meals-on-wheels program.

Now that the oven which they won at the PRASAB conference in 2013, has been installed, they can deliver their meals over a wider territory, in full confidence that each meal will be maintained at a safe temperature for every client.

We are told that all concerned are totally pleased with the Thermogo oven.
