    In the United States, holiday parties often feature elaborate menus, including large, show-stopping entrees like crown roasts, whole hams, and large birds like chicken, duck, or turkey. As such, long cooking times and crowded ovens are challenges to home entertaining and hosting. In response, we've developed a high-speed oven, aiming to slash cooking times to a third of traditional methods. Our goal is to bring this innovation to market within fiscal year 2024. Soon, every weeknight meal with your family could be a special occasion.

    Since the introduction of our built-in smart kitchen series in North America in 2020, we have been committed to making products that are simple to use, better than the competition, and help you live your best life. That is the promise of "Simply Better Living." Our smart kitchen lineup caters not only to North America but also to global markets in Europe and Asia. We foresee it becoming a cornerstone of Sharp's cooking appliance business, driving further expansion and innovation.
