Be it a restaurant, café or commerical kitchen, keeping your food fresh and ready to eat can sometimes prove a challenging task. Almost all food items are perishable and have a limited shelf life, so to preserve your goods and ensure that your customers don’t get sick from your food, you need to have an adequate freezer or cool room. And sometimes that means more than just the stock standard commerical ones that are available.
At South West Containers the cold storage units we have for sale and hire are new or second-hand refrigerator shipping containers, and they come in 10ft, 20ft and 40ft.
