Working together for the world’s best cooking performance – MKN and IKA
When the world’s best chefs compete against each other, it all comes down to the perfect interplay of all factors -precision, timing, teamwork and the ability to perform at top level under pressure. This is exactly what the IKA/Culinary Olympics stands for: culinary finesse at its finest.
As global player and manufacturer of intelligent professional cooking equipment, MKN is proud to be Exclusive Partner of the 27th IKA in February 2028. With state-of-the-art premium cooking technology, we lay the groundwork that enables national, youth and regional teams to fully unlock and maximize their potential – reliably and efficiently.
Creativity and finesse are the key to success in this competition – facilitated by the innovative strength and quality that set MKN apart. With our “Be your Best” challenge, we empower kitchen professionals to give their utmost every day. We do this by approaching the kitchen as a complete thermal solution – from multifunctional technology with modular concepts and precise process control up to digital connectivity. This brings about solutions that reduce complexity, stabilize workflows and enable consistently top results – even under competition conditions.
This approach makes MKN a valued partner worldwide. For international hotel chains such as Steigenberger, Hyatt, Hilton and Ritz Carlton, busy airports like London and Frankfurt or high-end professional kitchens in venues such as Sydney Opera House or the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, there is no getting around MKN when performance counts most. Numerous cruise ships also rely on our premier solutions – made in Germany.
Responsibility for the future is not an afterthought, but an integral part of our identity. MKN firmly commits to achieving carbon neutrality and embeds sustainability throughout the entire value chain – from development and production to operation of our equipment solutions. As a family-owned company with 80 years of history, we act with a clear vision of the future and the aim of actively developing the industry by providing durable, energy-efficient technology, sustainable materials and measurable contributions to reducing our ecological footprint.
As Exclusive Partner, MKN is equipping all competition kitchens at the IKA/Culinary Olympics with state-of-the-art professional cooking technology, providing teams with a perfect foundation for top-level performance.
The demands on professional kitchens are changing fundamentally, thereby creating a shift to a new reality for cooking.
