Open Coolers

An open cooler is a great way to keep your goods refrigerated while still being easy for customers to grab. That’s why they’re so common in stores across Canada that sell food. Most models have open fronts, but some include doors. These coolers are perfect for convenience stores, grocery stores, gas stations, and other places that need a grab and go refrigerated display case where customers can quickly access items.



One thing to consider before buying is where you’ll place the merchandiser. Make sure to measure your space and try to avoid putting it in direct sunlight, near doors, or next to HVAC vents. These factors can affect how efficiently the cooler maintains its temperature.

There are two main types of grab and go merchandisers: low profile and high profile. A low profile merchandiser is ideal for bakeries and delis. It’s great for displaying items like sandwiches and drinks that are meant to be quick, impulse purchases.

The high profile design is taller, usually around six feet depending on the model. You’ll often find these next to other refrigeration units like display freezers, but they also work well on their own. These open air coolers are great for convenience stores, grocery stores of all sizes, and cafes. They’re ideal for showcasing packaged meals, cold drinks, and snacks in a self-serve setting.
