AoFrio iQ: What a year of real customer use cases taught us about managing cooler fleets

A year ago, we switched on AoFrio iQ for our first customers. Since then, we’ve conducted more than thirty trials with leading food and beverage companies worldwide, sharpening our understanding of how data-driven insights help customers sell more cold beverages, and continuously improving our platform in turn. This is what a year of using AoFrio iQ to monitor real connected refrigeration fleets has taught us.

From Clipboard to Cloud: Why Manual Temperature Checks Are A Food Safety Gap Of The Past

At AoFrio, we’ve spent considerable time talking to food retail operators about how they manage food safety inside of their chilled and frozen retail assets, and the picture that emerges is surprisingly consistent regardless of store size or geography.

Frequently
asked
questions

AoFrio INSIDE includes Wellington smart refrigeration motors, SCS 600 or 800, Gateways and optional cellular connectivity [GC8.1]. All components are pre-integrated and engineered to work seamlessly together as a complete system, eliminating compatibility issues and supplier coordination complexity.

AoFrio INSIDE has proven to reduce energy consumption, extend motor life, cut service visits, and reduce downtime. The additional hardware investment is typically recovered in a short period, and ongoing savings continue over the full cooler lifecycle.

With pre-integrated, validated hardware, product development and deployment cycles are faster and smoother. You avoid delays caused by testing, troubleshooting, and fine-tuning multi-vendor solutions because everything is designed to work together from day one.

AoFrio INSIDE supports BLE and cellular options. BLE enables local data collection and app‑based workflows, while SCS 800 with embedded cellular provides wide‑area connectivity without relying on store Wi‑Fi, enabling near real‑time monitoring and remote diagnostics where required.

AoFrio INSIDE has proven to give OEMs a validated refrigeration control and connectivity stack from a single partner. This reduces multi‑vendor risk, shortens development and certification timelines, and provides a clear roadmap for advanced features without redesigning core hardware.

Yes. AoFrio INSIDE is modular and configurable, allowing OEMs to adapt control strategies, connectivity options, and motor configurations across multiple models while maintaining a common, proven architecture.
