These costs are likely to rise as humidity, heat, and traffic in and out of the Walk-In rise, but there are ways to limit the impact!
Operating a business can be a rollercoaster, with unpredictable highs and lows which almost all businesses have to navigate – sometimes more than others. Occasionally, business slows down unexpectedly, or there’s a need to shut down for a short time in order to keep the ledger in the black. But even when business is at an unwelcome standstill, there are hidden ways to save money, and prepare to sling-shot forward. If your business isn’t in full swing, your walk-in coolers or freezers are probably not in use – maybe even empty at the moment – which is the perfect time to reduce expenses and do some maintenance.
