Operator Buying Guide for the Cold Equipment Side

Wednesday, July 27, 2022 at 2:00pm EST

“Keeping your cool”  isn’t too easy for restaurateurs these days, given COVID, supply chain interruptions, labor difficulties and business and consumer-challenging inflation.

But in foodservice it is imperative that kitchen and bar operations stay ‘chill’ year round and that means it is important to consider a great number of factors beyond price when selecting the latest generation ice and refrigeration equipment needed to maintain food quality and safety, reduce waste and produce the cubes, flakes or crush that can make cold beverage offerings irresistible.

Capacity, production cycle time, ease and required frequency of maintenance, energy and water efficiency, space requirements, special installation needs – These are some of the many non-price considerations that make for thoughtful cold-side equipment purchases.
