Booming Food and Retail Industry in Asia Pacific Holds Promise for Commercial Refrigerators Sales

The booming food and retail industry in Asia Pacific is fuelling demand for refrigerators with innovative design. Unlike the refrigerators used in domestic applications, the ones used for commercial purposes have a high storage capacity and an expansive operating temperature suitable for a plethora of product types.

The growth witnessed in the Asia Pacific retail industry is also attributed to the increasing consumption of packaged food and beverages. “Due to the hectic lifestyle of consumers and their increasing willingness to pay for convenience food, the demand for packaged food and beverages is expected to surge exponentially in the near future,” said a TMR analyst.

In addition, the availability of alternate packaging solutions such as temperature-control packaging is hindering the sales of commercial refrigerators in Asia Pacific.
