Before You Buy: Four Questions to Ask Yourself Before Buying Bakery Cases or Deli Cases

If you're considering outfitting your store with some new bakery cases or deli cases, you'll need to do some research. Sure, the experienced professionals at Perfectemp can help you determine your needs and find the right bakery cases and deli cases to suit your needs. But why not ask yourself a few questions before you make the call?

Here's some food for thought.

What do I need to store? You may not need deli cases and bakery cases -- you may only need one or the other. Remember, those are just names, and you can store whatever you want in them. It's all about what you need to store. Peruse the websites of companies like Kysor Warren, Arneg and Hussman, to get an idea of what kinds of commercial refrigeration units can best address your needs.

What are my capacity needs? Obviously some cases are bigger than others, and you'll need to decide exactly what you're going to have to store, and how much product you move per week. Too little capacity and you'll find yourself having to buy a new freezer down the road. Too much and your cases will look empty and picked through, giving customers a bad impression of your store.

How much more can I afford to pay the electric company? Don't fool yourself: Deli cases and bakery cases can be an expensive investment, and not just initially. Your electric bill will rise -- but if you plan carefully, you can keep any increase manageable. This is where a customer sales representative at Perfectemp can advise you. Tell us your budget, and we'll help you figure out what kind of freezer best suits it.

Do I need an attractive display? This probably depends on what kind of store you have. If you run a small place that just sells the essentials, you'll probably only need a basic chest freezer -- you may not even need deli cases or bakery cases. But if you're outfitting a higher-end store, or if you want to display a lot of tasty-looking cakes, pies, or deli meats and cheeses, you'll need something with greater appeal. Try the Arizona Bakery Case or the Havana Deli Case from Arneg.
