Refrigeration systems represent a significant portion of the total energy expenditure in commercial spaces. Refrigeration equipment and cold storage furniture can account for up to 65% of the total energy costs of a large retail establishment.

Consumers demand healthy products with guaranteed food safety and minimal environmental impact.

Retail sector

Retail 5.0 involves transitioning towards energy efficiency, with consumption tailored to the contracted power and the operational and process needs of each supermarket.

This shift moves away from the traditional refrigeration model, characterized by a lack of data and 100% field-based maintenance, towards a refrigeration model with 70% self-executable actions and efficient energy management.

The current rapid technological advancement provides the retail sector with business intelligence tools enhanced by artificial intelligence, facilitating the integration of commercial refrigeration as a crucial component to enhance the customer shopping experience, reduce carbon footprint, and lower energy costs.

The new refrigeration strategy for retail must incorporate a real-time data measurement and analysis system, enabling cost optimization through continuous improvement initiatives. This is achieved by developing predictive and optimization systems that execute intelligent, self-executable actions.

We understand your concerns

The retail sector frequently encounters several critical challenges pertaining to resource optimization, infrastructure integrity, and facility administration, all of which profoundly affect the security and reliability of the food supply chain. In particular, refrigeration systems within this sector often exhibit suboptimal performance and inefficiencies. Maintenance for these systems is largely reactive, with corrective actions being undertaken post-failure and manual intervention occurring approximately 80% of the time.

Consequently, we delineate these challenges into four principal categories: food quality and safety, maintenance practices, and energy consumption along with environmental considerations.
