Alto-Shaam's Vector Multi-Cook Oven Receives Kitchen Innovations Award

MENOMONEE FALLS, Wis. – Alto-Shaam’s newest product, the Vector Series Multi-Cook Oven has received a Kitchen Innovations 2017 Award, which recognizes the biggest advancements of the year in the foodservice industry.

 The Vector Multi-Cook Oven offers up to four ovens in one and features exclusive Structured Air Technology™ for unmatched evenness and flexibility in cooking.  Structured Air Technology delivers high-velocity, vertical upward and downward airflow for faster, more even cooking than convection ovens.

  • Two, three or four ovens in one
