Operator to add locking technology to all refrigeration products

 

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL & CHATTANOOGA, TN — November 14, 2017 —

TriTeq Lock & Security LLC, a solution provider of electronic locks and monitoring technology in vending and micro-market retail, today announced a comprehensive agreement with Five Star Food Service, a forward-looking micro market, vending, coffee, and corporate dining services company. Five Star is a franchise of Canteen and one of the nation’s largest i

ndependent convenience service operators. Five Star has begun a two-year initiative to retrofit its base of micro-market based fresh food coolers and freezers with TriTeq Series 2000 FreshIQ Health Timer Locks for single and double door units.

“At Five Star Food Service, we recognize that it is paramount to protect the integrity of our food supply to the end consumer: said Alan Recher, President and CEO

, Five Star Food Service. “TriTeq is the leader in micro-market lock technology and the fact that the product has NAMA Health Timer Lock Certification for over three years speaks volumes for the health lock solution.”

Consumers enjoy the convenience of eating fresh food at the workplace.  The health-timer lock provides an extra level of certainty to the employee and business owner that the food served in the unattended market is safe. TriTeq’s Series 2000 FreshIQ locks continually monitor the temperature and the power source to the cooler.  A function of time and over-temperature or a power outage will cause the glass door cooler/freezer to lock down to prevent the consumer from accessing product that is potentially unsafe.

“The ability to retrofit the lock on almost every piece of existing glass door refrigeration is important to our initiative,” said Mark Stephanos Vice President, Micro-Markets, Five Star Food Service. “The necessary investment in Health Timer Locks is less burdensome when installing TriTeq to company assets.  We also have a distributor fitting TriTeq locks to new coolers before placing the refrigeration in the field.”

“The operator that invests in protecting the consumer will win the day” said William Denison, Chief Executive Officer, TriTeq Lock & Security. “TriTeq is committed to food safety-related products with technology that is simple to install and easy to diagnose for service. Our FreshTraq on-site monitoring systems are state-of-the-art and provide remote diagnostics, locking and unlocking from a computer or smartphone.  We are pleased to partner with Five Star Food Service to provide locking technology on new and existing refrigeration products.”
