OPTIMIZATION OF PRODUCTION MACHINERY

Kirkholm helps Toms optimize production equipment, specially developed to create their renowned products. From Tom's Gold Caramels and Yankie Bars to Giant Turtles and Penguin Rods, Toms Gruppen is behind many beloved sweet treats and is Denmark's leading producer of candy and chocolate.

The importance of efficient production machinery

To produce these delicious items, having the right production equipment is crucial. Toms places great emphasis on continuously developing and optimizing their machinery to ensure streamlined, up-to-date production processes.

A partnership of expertise: Taste meets technology

While Toms specializes in creating unique taste experiences, Kirkholm excels in providing mechanical solutions. This expertise has enabled Kirkholm to play a key role in the ongoing development of Toms’ equipment. With extensive knowledge and experience in production systems - especially within the food industry - Kirkholm has driven innovation, concept development, design, and optimization for Toms.

Safeguarding knowledge and ensuring unique production

By using Kirkholm’s consultants, Toms retains full ownership of all specialist knowledge and documentation generated during the project. This means no other company can replicate their production setup, while Toms continues to deliver high-quality products at scale, delighting candy lovers everywhere.

Commenting on the collaboration, Technical Manager Jens Neergaard-Petersen said:

“Kirkholm has provided professional project management for one of our largest and most complex projects. It involved several sub-projects, and Kirkholm successfully managed finances, planning, and risk. Moreover, they ensured that all necessary stakeholders were engaged, giving everyone a strong sense of ownership over the project.”
