Daikin UK forms special event partnership

UK: Daikin UK is to partner with commercial refrigeration company Pastorfrigor GB at a special event to present retailers with a complete solution for their refrigeration needs.

The partnership will bring together Daikin’s Conveni-pack and Zeas integrated retail air conditioning and refrigeration systems with Pastofrigor GB’s range of display cabinets.

The two will be exhibiting together at next month’s Retail’s Best Convenience & Forecourt Partners event in the Midlands.

Announcing his delight at the tie-up with Pastorfrigor GB, Paul Cornwell, refrigeration manager at Daikin UK, said: “Delivering a total store solution for all refrigeration needs, we’re looking forward to discussing our unique partnership and the benefits it presents to customers at the Retail’s Best event.”

“Representing the refrigeration sector at the Retail’s Best event, visitors to the stand will be able to gain an in-depth understanding of the benefits of combining a store’s climate control system into a single, energy efficient system such as the Daikin -Pack, whilst discovering the latest designs of display and bespoke cabinet solutions available from Pastorfrigor.”

Retail’s Best Convenience & Forecourt Partners is a special evening event designed specifically with retailers in mind. The event is designed to bring together some of the biggest names in the convenience and forecourt sector to work in partnership in a non-competitive environment. Its guest list is said to include some 100 key independent retailers and forecourt operators.

Taking place in the evening, the event includes short breakout-sessions, a drinks reception, what’s described as a “signature gourmet dining experience”, entertainment and a ‘smart exhibition’.

Retail’s Best Convenience & Forecourt Partners event is taking place on the March 23 at Chateau Impney in Worcestershire.
