Grocery
Overview
Electricity is a major line item for grocery stores as it powers the lighting, refrigeration systems, and various electrical appliances. Refrigeration is particularly significant in grocery stores to preserve perishable items and ensure food safety. With shoppers opening and closing wall chillers all day, these charges add up.
With this in mind and food costs rising, a no-cost utility bill analysis can save your store significant money and allow you to keep prices down increasing your customer loyalty.
