Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

"The Lunchbox Co." in Leeds was struggling to keep up with the queues during their weekday lunch rush. Their old setup meant chefs were constantly running back and  forth to the main fridge, slowing everything down. They upgraded to the Blizzard TOP2000-14EN to create a dedicated sandwich prep station.

"It’s completely changed our workflow for the better. Everything is right there, perfectly chilled and  organised. The team is less stressed, and  customers are getting their food faster. It's been a brilliant investment."

Robert Davies – Owner, The Lunchbox Co.

By centralising their ingredients, they managed to reduce average order fulfilment time by over 40% during their busiest period.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a flat, stable work surface that can comfortably support the unit's 85kg weight.
  • Leave a bit of space around the unit, especially at the back, for air to circulate properly.
  • Before plugging in, let it stand for a couple of hours to allow the refrigerant gasses to settle.
  • Give the interior a good wipe down with a food-safe cleaner before loading it with your gastronorm pans.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the interior and  exterior daily with a damp cloth and  mild detergent.
  • Check the door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and  making a tight connection to keep the cold in.
  • Every few months, carefully brush any dust or debris from the condenser coils to maintain efficiency.
  • Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the stainless steel surfaces to prevent scratching.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Prep Counter

Not sure which prep station is the perfect fit for your kitchen? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Consider Your Space

Measure your countertop carefully. A 2000mm unit like this one offers amazing capacity but needs the space to match. Plan where it will go and  ensure there's room for ventilation.

Gastronorm Layout

Think about what you're serving. This unit uses 1/4 GN pans, which are great for a wide variety of smaller ingredients like pizza toppings or salad bar items. Make sure this fits your menu.

Lid and  Cover Style

A hinged stainless steel lid, like on the Blizzard TOP2000-14EN prep counter, is brilliant for durability and  hygiene, completely sealing the unit when not in use. Other models might have glass canopies for display.

Energy Efficiency

Look at the refrigerant type (R600a is a good modern choice) and  power rating. An efficient unit will save you money on your electricity bills over its lifetime.

Ease of Cleaning

Stainless steel is the industry standard for a reason. Smooth surfaces and  removable parts will make your end-of-day clean-down much quicker and  easier.
