Rob Totten, VP of Franchise Development: Filta Environmental Kitchen Solutions

We are meeting with Rob Totten, VP of Franchise Development for Filta Environmental Kitchen Solutions, the leading provider of sustainable commercial kitchen services in the USA. Since its inception in 1996, Filta has positioned itself as the pioneering leader of active fryer management and environmental kitchen sustainability across the food and hospitality industries. Brought to North America in 2002 as a franchise concept, Filta is part of United Kingdom-based Franchise Brands (AIM: FRAN). The cornerstone of the company’s offering is FiltaFry, the complete fryer management service incorporating on-site micro-filtration as well as the removal, recycling, and replacement of cooking oil. Furthermore, the brand provides humidity control in cold storage devices through FiltaCool and prevents drain blockage through its grease-free drain foam brand FiltaDrain. Filta recently achieved the impressive milestone of recycling one billion pounds of cooking oil into biodiesel.  In part two, we play a clip from our popular Great Quotes in Franchising podcast on maps and GPS.
