Sydney is a melting pot of diverse cultures with the largest number of Asian Australians of any city in the country. The Chinese population is no exception making up the city’s 4th largest ancestry (after English, Australian and Irish). It is no surprise that Asian stores like Eric Yuan’s ‘In Zone Hurstville’ abound in every suburb in the city. Eric opened the doors of his store six months ago. His supermarket specialises in food imported from China and other Asian countries including snacks, cooking sauces, rice, noodles, drinks and frozen meat and vegetables. Eric also sells fresh fruit and vegetables.
Any small business owner knows that keeping costs down is of utmost importance. So when it came time to look for appliances for his store, he knew he would need fridges and freezers to keep his stock items fresh. One of the factors he looked at in deciding which brand to go for was power consumption. Eric looked at the energy usage of the commercial fridge and freezer brands available in Australia. He found that SKOPE’s energy usage, when compared to other brands, was the most energy efficient. Eric was looking for the savings he would get on his power bill in the long-term.
SKOPE fridges and freezers use only a third of the power when compared to other brands. According to Eric, this was the main reason he purchased SKOPE. While SKOPE was expensive compared to others, it was still in the affordable range. He also knew that SKOPE had a reputation he could trust and would gladly recommend the brand to other businesses. Eric installed 4 vertical display freezers and 4 glass door display fridges.

“Choosing SKOPE was about design aesthetics, functionality, and also hygiene. But we also wanted to make sure we chose a product that we could clean easily and was from a brand that had a really fabled reputation founded on reliability.”
“SKOPE is a very important part of the picture because we need concepts that work on many levels – our venues need to be labour-efficient and maintenance-efficient, and we need the confidence that the equipment we choose can be relied upon.”
“SKOPE has worked extremely hard to develop their products and the technology that goes into them.”
“The service and advice we've received from SKOPE is always outstanding and knowledgeable.”
“During the New South Wales floods in Australia in 2021 a bottle shop lost everything. They were able to quickly access short term rental fridges to get back up and running whilst they waited for their insurance claim to be processed. Because most of the bottle shops were also damaged in the town, they were able to generate increased sales during this time.”
