Established in 1979
The business began in 1979 in Parys, where our home base factory is still located. We began manufacturing freezers for the farming community that could hold product cold with only one hour of generator power. Back then there was little to no mains electricity supply to many small holdings and the company’s products gained a reputation for “staying cold” for the other 23 hours and hence the STAYCOLD name was born.
Once mains power became more prevalent, diversification of our range was required and we chose to enter the commercial refrigeration space, specifically beverage coolers.
Since then the pioneering principles of quality, efficiency, performance, reliability, and durability have remained at our core.
We have been running successfully for over forty years.
