The Problem
A premium product destroyed by afternoon heat
Ahmedabad summers are no joke. When temperatures regularly cross 43°C, every business selling shrikhand faces the same nightmare — a product that looks and tastes perfect in the morning, turning into a warm, watery mess by afternoon.
Sweet shop owners and dairy retailers were losing significant stock on hot days. Standard refrigerators were not built for display-service environments — every time a customer or staff member opened the unit to serve shrikhand, the internal temperature spiked.
The deeper frustration was this: shrikhand is a premium product. Customers expect it to look rich, firm, and fresh. A melting or sweating display is not just a loss of product — it's a loss of trust.
"Our stock was fine in the morning, but by 2 PM in May, we were serving shrikhand that looked like it had been left in the sun. We couldn't afford that kind of loss every day."
Challenge vs. Solution
Every problem, precisely solved
The Challenge
The Kareliya Equipments Solution
Shrikhand melts quickly in 43°C+ summer heat, causing product loss and revenue damage.
Static cooling technology with a sealed insulated cabinet maintains 2°C to 8°C continuously, even in peak summer.
Standard refrigerators are not designed for open-display service — every door opening spikes internal temperature.
Front-access glass door design minimises heat ingress while keeping product fully visible and accessible to customers.
Power fluctuations during Ahmedabad summers can crash conventional cooling units.
Voltage-stabiliser-ready compressor system handles common power fluctuations without tripping.
Generic counters don't stand out, reducing impulse purchases of premium products like shrikhand.
Premium glass and stainless steel build showcases shrikhand attractively, driving higher counter-level sales.
