Polar King Mobile designates Refrigeration Depot as dealer

Avon Lake OH-based Refrigeration Depot recently joined the Polar King family as a dealer for newly formed Polar King Mobile (PKM) business unit, which the company says will provide North America with the “first affordable small refrigerated trailer solution.”

Polar King Mobile small refrigerated trailers, ranging from 8 feet to 16 feet, that are affordable and industry-leading “in all respects,” the company said.

“The addition of Refrigeration Depot helps expand the reach of the PKM line in the Midwest,” said Christian Aitken, Polar King Mobile executive vice president. “Our products complement those of Polar King and Polar Leasing by providing a long absent solution to the marketplace. We are excited about the opportunity Refrigeration Depot brings to make these products more widely known and available to Midwest customers.”

Refrigeration Depot started 21 years ago as a refrigerator service company and has grown into a full-line refrigeration wholesale products provider. The company offers cooler/freezer cold storage, remote refrigeration condensing systems and self-contained units and parts.

Refrigeration Depot’s James Barnicle, vice president of operations, says PKM equipment is unlike any of their other product offerings.

“We are excited about the wider breadth of solutions we can now provide,” he said.

Barnicle also emphasized that Refrigeration Depot will continue to support the restaurant and foodservice industry with the quality equipment and OEM parts their customers rely on.

Polar King Mobile’s 110-volt refrigerated trailers are designed and engineered specifically for outdoor and over the road use. The company’s 100% seamless fiberglass design provides a continuous surface with rounded insulated corners to promote a sanitary environment. The durable, NSF-approved non-slip flooring system reduces the risk of slips and falls, and since the unit is seamless, it can quickly be cleaned with a hose and there’s no risk of damage to the insulation, Polar King said, adding that the unit will maintain a “factory new” appearance with regular care and cleaning.

PKM does not sell direct to the public.

“We are creating a national network of value-added resellers by recruiting the best trailer distributors from the North American Trailer Dealers Association,” Aitken said. “A national network that includes dealers such as Refrigeration Depot will provide the underpinning for fast, professional and knowledgeable customer service.”
