Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

Poppy’s Pantry, a bustling village bakery in Keswick, was struggling with a cluttered counter that hid their beautiful cakes and  pastries behind baskets. They needed a display solution that was tidy, professional, and  improved visibility.

"The change was immediate. Our counter looks so much cleaner and  our products finally have the spotlight they deserve. Customers are definitely noticing items they missed before; we see them adding a cookie or a pastry to their order right at the last second."

Robert Mills – Owner, Poppy's Pantry

After installing the King ZW-120, the bakery saw a clear uplift in sales of countertop items by over 20% in the first two months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Unbox the unit carefully, checking for any damage during transit.
  • Wipe all glass surfaces and  the interior with a food-safe cleaner before the first use.
  • Place the unit on a flat, level, and  stable countertop to ensure the sliding doors operate smoothly.
  • Position it where it has maximum visibility to customers, ideally near your till point.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the interior and  exterior surfaces daily with a damp cloth and  mild detergent.
  • Use a quality glass cleaner to keep the tempered glass panels sparkling and  streak-free.
  • Regularly check that the track for the sliding doors is free from crumbs and  debris.
  • Periodically inspect the glass for any chips or cracks to ensure continued safety.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Ambient Display

Not sure which display case is right for your space? Here are a few things to consider to make sure you get the perfect fit.

Measure Your Space

Always double-check your counter depth and  height. You'll want to leave a little room at the back for staff to access the sliding doors easily.

Consider Capacity

Think about your busiest period. Will a 120-litre capacity be enough, or do you need something larger? It's better to have a little extra space than not enough.

Think About Access

This unit has rear-loading doors, which are brilliant for staff-served environments as it keeps the customer side clean and  secure.

Check Your Lighting

Ambient displays don't have internal lights. Ensure your counter is well-lit by overhead lighting to make your products pop.

Match Your Décor

The sleek black finish of the King ZW-120 countertop warmer is designed to look professional in any setting, from rustic cafés to modern delis.

Understanding 'Ambient': Why No Plugs Mean No Problems

You might see the term 'ambient' and  wonder what it means. In the world of catering equipment, it’s actually a huge plus. 'Ambient' simply means the cabinet keeps food at the surrounding room temperature—it doesn't actively heat or cool. Think of it like a pantry with a perfect, all-around view. It protects your delicious muffins, doughnuts, and  pastries from dust, coughs, and  curious fingers, just like a cupboard would, but puts them on full display for your customers. This is ideal for any baked goods that are perfectly happy at room temperature for the day, ensuring they don't dry out under a heat lamp or become damp in a fridge. It's the simplest, most effective way to present food that's already at its best.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Local Cafés: Perfect for displaying croissants, muffins, and  cakes to tempt customers waiting for their morning brew.
  • Artisan Bakeries: An ideal way to showcase freshly baked bread, pastries, and  treats right at the till.
  • Delis & Sandwich Bars: Great for presenting pre-wrapped sandwiches, sausage rolls, and  savoury snacks for quick grab-and-go lunches.
  • Farm Shops: An excellent unit for highlighting local pies, pasties, and  preserves on your main counter.
