The 3-tier design allows users to serve up to three different beverages simultaneously—ideal for cafes offering coffee, tea, and juice, or for parties where guests want a choice of soda, iced tea, and lemonade. Each tier features a separate dispensing spout, which is designed to prevent dripping and ensure smooth, controlled pouring. The integrated ice cylinder fits into the center of each tier, keeping drinks cold for up to 8 hours without mixing with the beverage (thus avoiding dilution).

Cleaning the GS007-1 is straightforward: the dispenser can be disassembled into individual tiers, spouts, and ice cylinders, all of which are dishwasher-safe (top rack only) or can be hand-washed with mild soap and water. This ease of cleaning is a critical feature for commercial users, who need to maintain hygiene standards efficiently.

Advantages of the GS007-1 Over Competitors

The GS007-1 stands out from other beverage dispensers on the market due to its innovative design, durable materials, and customer-centric features. Below are the key advantages:

1. Superior Ice Retention Without Dilution

Many traditional beverage dispensers rely on adding ice directly to the beverage, which melts over time and dilutes the drink—ruining its flavor and texture. The GS007-1 solves this problem with its integrated ice cylinder: a sealed, removable cylinder that holds ice cubes (or frozen water) and is placed inside each tier. The cylinder’s design ensures that cold air circulates around the beverage, keeping it cold for up to 8 hours without any direct contact between ice and drink. This feature is a game-changer for commercial users, who can serve consistent, flavorful drinks all day long without having to refill ice or adjust for dilution.

Competitors often offer dispensers with separate ice compartments that are not integrated, leading to faster melting and less effective cooling. For example, a leading competitor’s single-tier dispenser has an ice compartment that cools drinks for only 4-5 hours, and the ice mixes with the beverage if not monitored closely. The GS007-1’s ice cylinder design outperforms this by 75% in terms of cold retention time, according to internal testing.

2. 3-Tier Capacity for Maximum Efficiency

The GS007-1’s 3-tier structure maximizes both capacity and space efficiency. Each tier can hold up to 5 liters of beverage, for a total capacity of 15 liters—enough to serve 60-75 cups of 200ml each before needing a refill. This is significantly more than single-tier (5 liters) or 2-tier (10 liters) dispensers, which require frequent refills and take up more counter space per liter of capacity.

For commercial users, this means less time spent refilling dispensers and more time focused on serving customers. For example, a café using the GS007-1 can serve three different beverages to 75 customers without refilling, whereas a single-tier dispenser would need to be refilled three times to serve the same number of customers. This efficiency translates to higher productivity and better customer satisfaction.

3. Durable, Food-Safe PS Material

The GS007-1 is made of high-quality PS (polystyrene), a material known for its durability, shatter resistance, and food safety. Unlike cheaper plastics (such as PET or PVC), PS is BPA-free and meets international food safety standards, including the U.S. FDA and EU Regulation 1935/2004. This ensures that the dispenser is safe for storing and dispensing beverages, even for long periods.

Competitors often use lower-quality plastics that are prone to cracking, warping, or leaching chemicals into drinks. For example, a budget dispenser made of PET plastic may crack if dropped or exposed to extreme temperatures, leading to frequent replacements and higher long-term costs. The GS007-1’s PS material is shatter-resistant, so it can withstand accidental drops or bumps in commercial settings, reducing maintenance costs.

4. Flexible MOQ for Small and Large Buyers

The minimum order quantity (MOQ) for the GS007-1 is 2000 pieces—this is a key advantage for small businesses and start-ups that may not have the budget for larger MOQs. Many competitors require MOQs of 5000 pieces or more, which is out of reach for small cafes, restaurants, or event planners.

For example, a small café with 5 locations can order 2000 pieces (400 per location) to stock their counters, whereas a larger competitor’s MOQ of 5000 would force them to order more than they need, tying up capital. The GS007-1’s flexible MOQ makes it accessible to a wider range of buyers, from small businesses to large retailers.

5. Fast Delivery Time

The standard delivery time for the GS007-1 is 30 days from order confirmation and payment—this is significantly faster than the industry average of 45-60 days. This is made possible by the manufacturer’s optimized supply chain, which includes long-term contracts with material suppliers, automated production lines, and strong relationships with logistics partners.

For example, a hotel chain planning a summer promotion can order the GS007-1 and receive it in 30 days, whereas a competitor’s dispenser would take 60 days—missing the peak summer season. The fast delivery time gives buyers a competitive edge, allowing them to launch promotions or stock products quickly.

6. Optimized Shipping for Lower Costs

The GS007-1’s packaging is optimized to maximize container space, reducing shipping costs for bulk orders. Each carton holds 4 pieces, with dimensions of 54x53x54cm. This allows for 704 pieces in a 20ft container and 1744 pieces in a 40ft HQ container—more than many competitors’ dispensers.

For example, a 20ft container of the GS007-1 costs $1000, resulting in a per-unit shipping cost of $1.42. A competitor’s dispenser that fits only 600 pieces in a 20ft container would cost $1.67 per unit—an increase of 17% per unit. This optimized shipping reduces the total cost of ownership for buyers, making the GS007-1 a more cost-effective choice.
