Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'The Bristol Loaf', a bustling artisan bakery and café in Bristol, needed to upgrade their tired, inefficient drinks fridge. They wanted a unit that not only looked professional but also had the capacity to handle their busy lunch rushes without constant refilling.
"The new Polar fridge has been brilliant. It’s bright, spacious, and our drink sales have definitely picked up. Customers can see exactly what we’ve got, and the adjustable shelves let us fit in all our different artisan sodas and juices perfectly. It just looks so much more professional."
Robert Davies – Co-Owner, The Bristol Loaf
By improving visibility and capacity, the café saw a clear 20% increase in chilled drink sales within the first month of use.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Position the fridge on a flat, level surface to ensure the door seals correctly and the motor runs quietly.
- Leave a gap of at least 20cm around the unit, especially at the back, for proper air circulation. This is vital for efficiency!
- Once in place, plug it in and let it run for at least 3-4 hours to reach the correct temperature before loading it with stock.
- Use the adjustable feet at the front to ensure the unit is stable and doesn't rock.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe the door seals weekly with a damp cloth to remove grime and ensure a tight seal.
- Regularly clean the shelves and interior surfaces with a food-safe sanitiser.
- Crucially, the condenser coil must be cleaned at least four times a year. A dusty coil makes the fridge work harder, using more energy.
- Routinely check the digital display to ensure the temperature is within the correct 2°C to 8°C range.

You might see 'double-glazed door' and 'LED lighting' listed, but what does that actually mean for your business? Think of the double-glazed door like the windows in your house. It has two panes of glass with a gap in between, which acts as an insulating barrier. This simple design is incredibly effective at keeping the cold air inside the fridge and the warmer air of your shop out, meaning the motor doesn't have to work as hard to maintain the temperature. Likewise, the internal LED lighting uses a fraction of the power of older fluorescent bulbs and, crucially, generates almost no heat. This dual approach means lower electricity bills and a more stable temperature for your products, all day long.
Who Should Buy This?

- Convenience Stores & Newsagents: Maximise impulse buys of cold drinks, milk, and snacks with this large, eye-catching 600 litre upright display fridge.
