Seven types of baking machinery made in Israel will be exhibited at the Baking Industry Exposition which opens next week in Atlantic City, N.J. it was announced here today by the American-Israel Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
The machinery is manufactured by Gershon Paglin and Sons Machine and Oven Works of Tel Avev which last year installed a giant oven at the Gold Medal Bakery in Philadelphia which is currently turning out 500,000 bagels daily. The Israeli firm has also sold smaller pieces of equipment to another Philadelphia bakery.
An outstanding feature of the Israeli-made baking equipment which serves as an advantage over similar imported machinery is the fact that components and accessories used in the construction of the machines are of U.S. origin, so that replacement and repairs pose no problems.
