What to know locally in Western Cape

Epping and Montague Gardens are the main areas for refrigeration wholesalers and spares counters in Cape Town, with others in Bellville, Paarl, Worcester and George.

Chest freezers are bought by families in Khayelitsha, Gugulethu and Atlantis and by small fishing businesses along the West Coast.

Western Cape: heat, power and cold chains

The Western Cape has a split personality for refrigeration. Cape Town's Atlantic and False Bay suburbs face salt air and the summer south-easter, while inland towns such as Worcester, Paarl and Robertson bake through dry summers. Fruit, wine and fishing drive much of the commercial work: deciduous fruit packhouses in the Ceres and Grabouw areas, table grapes in the Hex River Valley, wine farms around Stellenbosch, and fish and abalone along the coast from Hermanus to the West Coast. Restaurants, guest houses and holiday lets along the Garden Route run cold rooms and bar fridges, and Cape Flats spaza shops rely on bottle coolers. Coil corrosion, cold room service and display fridge repairs lead the requests.
