Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
'The Greedy Gannet', a popular bakery in York, was struggling with a small, outdated food warmer that couldn't cope with their lunchtime rush. They upgraded to the Zoin Kristall 1000mm to increase their display capacity and improve presentation.
"The difference was immediate. Customers could see our full range of hot pies and pasties from the moment they walked in. It looks so much more professional, and we're no longer scrambling to restock every five minutes during peak hours."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Greedy Gannet
The improved visibility and larger capacity directly contributed to a significant outcome: The bakery saw its hot savoury sales increase by over 25% within the first two months.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Find a flat, stable surface away from direct sunlight or cold draughts to ensure consistent temperature.
- Ensure there's a few inches of space around the unit for proper air circulation.
- Simply plug into a standard 13-amp socket – no special wiring needed.
- Allow the cabinet to pre-heat to your desired temperature before loading it with food.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe down all glass surfaces daily with a suitable food-safe glass cleaner for a streak-free shine.
- Remove the shelves regularly and wash them with warm, soapy water.
- Use a soft brush or vacuum to clear out any crumbs from the base of the unit to maintain hygiene.
- Periodically check that the thermostat is holding the correct temperature to ensure food safety.
