Vaughan Grocery Chain 11-Store Walk-In Freezer PM

Quarterly PM on every walk-in freezer and cooler in the chain, with a 24-hour priority line. The contract averaged a 2:40 emergency response through 2025 with zero product loss.

Scheduled refrigeration maintenance and 24-hour emergency coverage for walk-in freezers, walk-in coolers and condensing units across an 11-store grocery chain in Vaughan and York Region.

The Challenge

What the Building Needed

The chain had lost product twice in one year to freezer failures that started as iced coils and failed defrost. Each store had a different contractor history, no common records and no reliable after-hours response.

Our Approach

How We Did It

  1. 01 Built a single equipment inventory for all 11 stores with model, serial, refrigerant and age for every box.
  2. 02 Set quarterly PM: condenser coil cleaning, defrost and drain line heater checks, door gasket and heater checks, controller setpoint review.
  3. 03 Put every store on the 24-hour food-service priority line with a 313A mechanic on call.
  4. 04 Issued a written compliance log after every visit for the chain food safety file.

Results

Measured Outcomes

  • 2:40 average emergency response in 2025
  • Zero product loss across all 11 stores in 2025
  • Iced-coil calls down sharply after the first two PM cycles
  • One compliance log format across the whole chain

"We went from two freezer losses in a year to none. The quarterly logs are the first thing our food safety auditor asks for now."
