UK-based Starfrost has appointed Austral Pack as its exclusive representative in Chile for automated freezing and chilling equipment. The agreement expands Starfrost’s presence in Chile’s food processing sector, including seafood, meat, poultry and bakery.
Austral Pack will support food manufacturers with sales assistance, project design and technical services, including installation, startup, service and maintenance. Starfrost said its offering includes spiral freezers and IQF tunnels.
