Chest freezers play an integral role in commercial kitchens and supermarkets. Whether it’s in hotels, bars and restaurants keeping food fresh to be cooked by an in-house chef, or in the aisles of a shop for the public to prepare their own meals, chest freezers help to preserve the high quality of food items ahead of their use.
