Food Safe Lighting, Fresh Food Merchandising, Meat & Seafood Shelf Life - all Critical for Supermarket Profitability & Sustainability

Energy Savings for Refrigerated Display Cases and Improved Product Integrity & Shelf Life are presented at Euroshop.

There are several new and exciting products available today that will help Euroshop’s grocery retailers extend shelf life, reduce operating costs, improve food safety and protect profit margins.

Supermarket owners and independent store operators are constantly searching for innovative and economical ways to safely and effectively merchandise fresh foods, boost sales and retain shopper loyalty. For an overwhelming number of consumers, one of their primary concerns is food safety.

Grocery Display Case Lighting Manufacturer, Promolux Lighting International, is Proud to be Exhibiting at Euroshop
The types of food lighting you use and the refrigeration equipment you employ – these all have an impact on food integrity, food safety and food appearance. In addition the type of display case lighting can impact daily operating expenses and profit margins especially when improper light sources cause premature spoilage in perishable food departments.

The ideal way to appeal to shoppers is through their senses – shoppers are drawn to departments and display cases and to products that look fresh and appetizing enough to eat.

Display Case Lighting and Its Impact on Category Management
The visual presentation of fresh food showcases is a way of communicating with your clientele. Regular fluorescent lights emit strong wavelengths of damaging spectrum that cause foods to discolour, dry, off-flavour and spoil prematurely. This results in high volumes of product shrink and discard at the end of each day.

Fresh foods present unique challenges in the handling, storing and merchandising of them at the grocery retail level. However, there are a select group of products that will allow you and your staff to effectively and safely merchandise these products, extend shelf life, encourage sales and keep end-of-the-day waste as low as possible.
