Refrigerated display cabinets: a growing global market

A comprehensive global report on refrigerated display cabinets released by GIA predicts that the market will grow to over USD 5.34 billion by 2017, stimulated by the rise in food retailing, restaurants, takeaways and other non-traditional food outlets such as kiosks and petrol stations, but also by the replacement and redesigning of equipment due to the phase-out of high-GWP refrigerants.
Refrigerated display cabinets together with walk-in refrigerators account for 45% of the global commercial refrigeration equipment market.
Developed regions in Europe and the USA represent the largest markets, but emerging economies are potential growth vectors for refrigerated equipment.
