It’s more important now than ever that your chain of restaurants consider ways to save time and money.
From optimising productivity and choosing energy efficient equipment, to reducing downtime and becoming a more sustainable business, there are lots of ways that your restaurants and their teams can help boost profitability, while increasing efficiency.
We explore more on these methods and reveal how True Refrigeration can help below.
Upgrading to more sustainable equipment
As sustainability and energy efficiency continue to be a priority for many businesses around the world, upgrading your kitchen and bar equipment can help you save money on your bills, as well as take positive steps towards your sustainability goals.
At True Refrigeration, we help our customers to be kinder to the planet with our energy efficient and sustainable products. Our product range is amongst the most energy efficient in the commercial refrigeration market, helping you to reduce your energy usage.
We’ve also launched an energy cost calculator, which will enable you to compare expenditure and the environmental impact of refrigeration units in your chain of restaurants.

Considering the long-term costs
While it may be tempting to choose the cheapest equipment available, this often isn’t the most cost-effective solution overall.
Although you may assume you will be saving money in the short term, the added cost of operating and maintaining budgets with less energy-efficient equipment can very quickly put you back in the red.
Also known as value engineering, where a cheaper product of supposed equivalent functionality is chosen when compared against other units, the cheaper option is often not built to perform or last.
That’s why it’s important to consider the total life cost of a commercial refrigeration unit, including its energy efficiency and quality of materials, rather than just using cost as a deciding factor.
Maintaining equipment to reduce downtime
Keeping on top of your equipment to ensure it performs at its best is another way to save money. Not only will it help reduce your downtime, but it will also minimise the need to pay for expensive replacements.
