In developing countries like Mexico, approximately 40% of total food production is lost before it reaches the market, hitting small farmers without access to cold storage the hardest.
By providing affordable, off-grid, solar-powered cold storage in walk-in stations, Focusun reduces food waste and enables small farmers to increase their income by selling a larger proportion of their produce.
Focusun installs cold rooms in food markets and at farms, allowing farmers to keep their produce fresh by stacking it in clean crates inside the rooms. The rooms are solar powered and big enough to walk inside. The rooftop solar panels generate electricity that is stored in high-capacity batteries to power the refrigerating unit.
Insulating panels retain the cold to keep the rooms energy efficient.
Focusun refrigeration solution allows farmers and food markets to have higher levels of economic productivity by reducing inefficiencies and waste generation.
