Why this upright fridge earns its place
The Hoshizaki Premier K70CDRU is a single-door upright refrigerator that holds 475 litres of chilled stock across four shelves behind the line. Its interior is built around 2/1 gastronorm, so pans move straight from the prep bench into storage without repacking into odd-sized containers. That compatibility matters most mid-service, when a chef needs to lift a pan out, take what's needed, and return it to the same shelf without breaking rhythm.
A single full-height door keeps the footprint tight for a kitchen where floor space is limited (690 mm wide, 920 mm deep, 2075 mm tall), while the upright format keeps everything at eye level rather than stacked in a chest where lower items get buried. It holds a steady +2 to +12 °C and runs on energy class A at 341 kWh per year—energy-efficient enough for constant service use. Because only one door swings, it suits a wall run or a gap between existing equipment where clearance is at a premium.
It is part of Hoshizaki's Premier range of commercial storage refrigeration, built for kitchens that need dependable positive-temperature holding rather than display chilling. The unit carries a five-year warranty, and Craven Cooling can check the spec panel against your menu, footprint and service pattern before it's specified for a live kitchen.
