Long Island-based supermarket chain King Kullen has selected Facilio's Connected Retail software platform to automate its refrigeration compliance management and stay ahead of the upcoming Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulatory changes, especially EPA's AIM Act Emissions Reduction and Reclamation Regulations.
'The US is facing the biggest shift in refrigerant regulations since they were created in the late '80s. This regulatory overhaul will cost refrigerant end users hundreds of millions and introduce unprecedented legal obligations for sectors like convenience stores and supermarkets that previously weren't impacted,' said Basant Singhatwadia, Facilio's Director of Customer Success.
'Our holistic refrigeration compliance management platform enables end-to-end compliance management for King Kullen, eliminating compliance risks. The EPA and GreenChill-ready dashboard further simplifies tracking.'
King Kullen was among the early partners to join the EPA's GreenChill programme and has earned recognition in the past for its leadership in minimising refrigerant emissions and environmental impact.
Stanley Mitchell, Vice President – Engineering, Construction and Maintenance, King Kullen, said, 'With Facilio, we now have full visibility across store assets, and the real-time alerts help us stay on top of events to mitigate any potential compliance risks.'
'The reporting and analytics part of the platform gives us the data driven insights we need to take prompt action. All compliance processes are fully automated now. We're already seeing significant value from this tech deployment.'
