RetailQuestionTime

On Thursday 25th February 2010 Cold Service will be the main sponsor for the first ever Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Magazines Retail Question Time to be held at the Barbican Centre, London.

RAC’s first ever Retail Question Time - an audience with the UK’s most influential Supermarkets!

The UK's major supermarkets are embarking on a period of rapid change in their approach to cooling. Some have already made announcements revealing bold targets for moving to natural refrigerants, while all the big firms have commitments to reduce their carbon footprints and increase energy efficiency.

All this adds up to a major challenge for the supply chain, which has to meet the demands for higher engineering standards and better component availability.

RAC’s Retail Question Time aims to bring both end-users and suppliers together, to allay their concerns and help everyone sing off the same hymn sheet.

The collective knowledge of our panel provides you with an unrivalled opportunity to benefit from their crucial insights in a relaxed environment.
