Kelsius temperature monitoring is a cut above the rest for management and staff at Rio Steakhouse

Rio Steakhouse is a premium steakhouse group with eight locations across the UK, offering an authentic Brazilian dining experience. Guests enjoy a unique rodizio-style service, with premium meats served by expert chefs. Across its venues, Rio delivers an immersive culinary journey, blending exceptional hospitality with the rich flavours of Brazil.

 

 

The Challenge 

Rio faced challenges in managing food safety and HACCP records across its eight locations. Ensuring compliance and maintaining up-to-date records was a complex task for head chefs, particularly ahead of EHO inspections.

Additionally, as the business expanded, rising costs highlighted the need to reduce food waste and improve control over kitchen operations.

 

Introducing FoodCheck2.0 from Kelsius

Recognising these challenges, the new Operations Director Rodrigo saw an opportunity to introduce the Kelsius digital HACCP system across the Rio estate. The benefits were significant:

  • 2 hours saved per day per property, on average saved by all food staff.
  • £1,000 per year per property estimated saved on wasted food.
  • 4 hours per week saved by management using automated reports.
  • Paper, ink and folders usage reduced to zero.
  • Food safety training time reduced by half.
  • 90% estimated reduction in mistakes due to human error.

 

A streamlined audit process

Commenting on using FoodCheck2.0 in Rio Steakhouse, Managing Director Rodrigo Grassi Duarte said, “I wouldn’t want to work anywhere that didn’t have the Kelsius system implemented. A big part is being able to streamline the audit process. We have been able to provide EHOs with full visibility of our records which gives them huge confidence in our processes.”

 

Barbara Alves, Executive Chef, Rio Steakhouse

“I wouldn’t want to work anywhere that didn’t have the Kelsius system implemented. A big part is being able to streamline the audit process. We have been able to provide EHOs with full visibility of our records which gives them huge confidence in our processes.

 

“Automated appliance monitoring is also so important to us. It saves our team roughly two hours a day, whilst also saving us £1,000 in stock alone in the last year from notifying our team of faulty appliances”

 

 

Nisa stores to save up to £10k a year with Kelsius food safety management tech

Nisa retailers stand to save thousands annually as the group progresses with a new technology trial in partnership with Kelsius. The cutting-edge food safety management system is currently being tested in selected stores. Kelsius undertook a three-month trial with independent retailer Gary Batten across his two Nisa stores in Cornwall. During the pilot, Batten saved up two hours of staff time per day at his store in St Stephens Cornwall, amounting to £10,000 a year.

His other Nisa store, based in Pentewan, Cornwall, allowed him to optimise up to one hour of colleague labour a day, saving £9,000 in annual costs. The innovative digital solution offers automated temperature monitoring and HACCP compliance tools via wireless sensors and probes. Retailers can access real-time data and generate reports that streamline audits and compliance processes, while digital checklists support consistent completion of daily hygiene and safety routines.

Danielle Guy, UK food retail sales manager for Kelsius, emphasised the value the system delivers, particularly amid the ongoing challenges in the retail sector. “With rising costs and persistent labour shortages, retailers are under more pressure than ever to find efficiency gains,” she said. “The Kelsius system empowers teams to ensure food safety is managed efficiently and consistently, without the burden of manual checks.”

Initial feedback from Nisa retailers suggests strong interest in rolling out the technology more widely following the trial phase, citing time savings, enhanced traceability, and reduced risk of human error.

In May 2018 Co-op Wholesale completed its acquisition of Nisa Retail Limited. Working with the Co-op, Nisa Partners still have the freedom to operate independently. They have the flexibility, insight, and tailored support they need to thrive, backed by Co-op’s industry-leading own-brand range, supply chain expertise, and buying power.

Navigating Food Safety Compliance in UK Retail: Challenges and Solutions

Ensuring food safety is a paramount concern for UK food retailers, as it directly impacts consumer health, brand reputation, and regulatory compliance. Navigating the complexities of food safety regulations can be challenging, but with the right tools and systems, retailers can maintain high standards and streamline their operations.

 

Understanding UK Food Safety Regulations 

The UK enforces stringent food safety laws to protect consumers and uphold food quality. Key legislation includes the Food Safety Act 1990 and the Food Safety and Hygiene (England) Regulations 2013, which mandate that businesses ensure food is safe for consumption and meet hygiene standards.  

Retailers are required to implement effective food safety management systems, conduct regular hazard analyses, and maintain detailed records of their processes. Non-compliance can result in severe penalties, including fines, legal action, and damage to brand reputation. 

 

Common Challenges Faced by UK Retailers 
  1. Regulatory Compliance: Keeping abreast of evolving food safety regulations demands continuous monitoring and adaptation. 
  2. Record Keeping: Maintaining accurate and accessible records is essential but can be labour-intensive and prone to human error. 
  3. Supply Chain Management: Ensuring that all suppliers adhere to food safety standards requires diligent oversight and coordination. 
  4. Staff Training: Regular training is necessary to keep staff informed about best practices and regulatory changes, which can be resource intensive. 
  5. Labour Shortages: Retail particularly continues to face the challenge of labour shortages caused in varying degrees by the effects of the pandemic, Brexit and the availability of a flow of a suitable workforce.  
  6. Rising costs: The cost of doing business is significant for UK food retailers who need to consider the price of stock, energy, labour, regulatory compliance, local services and business rates. All while at the same time consumer behaviour continues to shift towards price-driven purchase decisions.  

 

How a Digital HACCP System can Help 

Kelsius offers innovative digital solutions designed to assist UK retailers in overcoming these challenges: 

  • FoodCheck 2.0: This system automates temperature monitoring and HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) management, reducing reliance on manual checks and paperwork. It provides real-time data and alerts, ensuring swift responses to potential issues. 
  • CoolCheck: Specialising in wireless temperature monitoring, CoolCheck ensures that all refrigeration units operate within safe parameters, preventing spoilage and ensuring compliance with food safety standards.

Benefits of Implementing Kelsius Systems 

  • Enhanced Compliance: Automated monitoring and record-keeping simplify adherence to regulations and facilitate smoother audits. 
  • Operational Efficiency: Reducing manual tasks allows staff to focus on core business activities, improving overall productivity. 
  • Data-Driven Insights: Access to comprehensive data enables informed decision-making and proactive management of food safety risks. 


Conclusion 

In the dynamic landscape of UK retail, maintaining rigorous food safety standards is both a regulatory requirement and a competitive advantage. Kelsius provides the tools necessary to streamline compliance, enhance operational efficiency, and ensure the highest levels of food safety.

The Net Zero Drive & Fish and Chips: How Kelsius Is Helping the Industry Go Greener

Fish & Chips Meets Net Zero: A Deep-Fried Dilemma?

Fish and chips is more than a national treasure in the UK and Ireland—it’s a £1.2 billion industry. But as the world races towards Net Zero carbon emissions, this much-loved takeaway staple is under pressure to clean up its act.

From energy-guzzling fryers to high food waste, the carbon footprint of fish and chips is far from sustainable. The good news? Technology is catching up—and companies like Kelsius are stepping in to help.

 

What Is Net Zero, and Why Does It Matter?

“Net Zero” means balancing the amount of greenhouse gases emitted with the amount removed from the atmosphere. The UK government has legally committed to reaching Net Zero by 2050.

For foodservice businesses, this means:

  • Cutting down on energy use
  • Reducing food waste
  • Rethinking packaging
  • Improving supply chain transparency

That’s where the fish and chips industry comes in—an industry that relies on deep fryers, refrigeration, and fast-moving stock.

 

The Environmental Cost of Fish and Chips

While fish and chips might seem harmless, every plate carries a carbon load. Here’s a quick look:

The biggest culprits? Poor temperature management, energy-inefficient equipment, and lack of digital tracking—leading to spoiled stock and wasted energy.

  1. Cutting Food Waste

Spoiled stock is a massive issue. Kelsius helps prevent it by:

  • Automating temp logs, removing human error
  • Ensuring compliance with food safety standards
  • Preventing stock loss from unnoticed fridge failures

That means less waste—and less emissions from food going to landfill.

  1. Improving Compliance with Net Zero Goals

Food safety and sustainability go hand-in-hand. With Kelsius:

  • Businesses meet EHO standards digitally
  • Staff spend less time on manual checks
  • Reporting for sustainability audits is easy and paperless

 

Why This Matters for the Fish and Chips Industry

As consumer demand for sustainability grows, people want more than great taste—they want eco-conscious food choices.

Fish and chip shops that adopt smart tech like Kelsius:

  • Improve their brand reputation
  • Appeal to eco-aware customers
  • Save money and future-proof their business

 

Steps Fish & Chip Shops Can Take Today

Kelsius Digital HACCP and wireless temperature monitoring exceeds expectations for Hastings Hotels

The Culloden Estate And Spa Exterior

On average, each property saves three hours per day for all food staff

 

Hastings Hotels is a luxury hotel group operating six hotels and a stand-alone Gastro Pub, Cultra Inn, situated on the Culloden Estate in Northern Ireland, serving a wide range of prepared and fresh food to its customers. These seven properties offer guests an impressive choice of venues, catering across leisure, events, sporting pursuits and gourmet dining.

 

 

Challenges Faced by Management and Chefs

Hastings Hotels faced the challenge of managing food safety and HACCP records across multiple locations. Larger properties like the Grand Central and Europa Hotels have different areas for multiple kitchens, bars, delis and large catering spaces, all requiring up to date records to be kept.

Management had little oversight of all food safety records, with a paper process that was prone to errors, and too much time was spent on recording data rather than providing the best guest experience.

Chefs spent too much time reviewing paper records and manually recoding temperatures across different kitchens and floors. Stock was being lost due to no notifications of faulty appliances, and there was little traceability for food.

 

Introducing the Kelsius System

The Kelsius FoodCheck 2.0 system was introduced into operations at Hastings Hotels. With the system now in use in their properties, management has more confidence and peace of mind as audits and inspections are easier. Reporting is streamlined and it’s much easier to train any agency staff who are required ad hoc.

Digital traceability means better transparency and accountability, with no risk of falsification or mistakes due to human error. Automated alerts have hugely reduced the risk of food waste due to temperature excursions, improving the shelf life of products.

 

Benefits

  • Three hours saved per day on average per property by all food staff
  • Estimated £2000 per year per property saved on wasted food
  • Four hours per week saved by management using automated report
  • Paper, ink and folders used reduce to zero
  • Food safety training time reduced by half
  • 90% estimated reduction in mistakes caused by human error

 

 

Raymond Duncan Compliance, Operations & Procurement Manager, Hastings Group:

“Using the Kelsius system, I have peace of mind knowing all food safety processes are being adhered to. The automated system minimises human error and it’s so much easier for management to remotely identify trends or gaps in any hotel and act in real time. Our EHO loves the system as it gives them full visibility of our processes, in turn they are more confident in us to maintain outstanding food safety for our guests. We’re delighted with the system.”

The Importance of Temperature Control for Businesses in the Food Supply Chain

Temperature control is a cornerstone of the food supply chain, directly influencing food safety, product quality, and overall business success. Leveraging tools like wireless temperature monitoring, digital HACCP systems, and automated temperature reporting ensures compliance and efficiency across all stages, from farm to table.

Maintaining the correct temperature from the moment food is harvested until it reaches the consumer prevents spoilage, contamination, and waste. Incorporating advanced food industry IoT solutions, such as digital HACCP, streamlines these processes, reduces risks, and enhances operational efficiency.

In this article, we will examine the important role of temperature control and its impact on companies within the food industry.

Ensuring Food Safety

Food safety is the top priority in the food supply chain. Fluctuations in temperature can create conditions conducive to the growth of harmful bacteria, leading to health risks. In the UK, there are approximately 1 million reported cases of food poisoning annually1. In the US, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 48 million people suffer from foodborne illnesses each year, many due to improper temperature management2.

Maintaining the correct temperature during storage and transport minimises the risk of contamination. Businesses can achieve this through temperature mapping services, paperless HACCP solutions, and cold storage monitoring systems. These technologies ensure that temperature is consistently monitored and controlled across storage facilities, transport vehicles, and retail environments.

Preserving Food Quality

Temperature management not only safeguards food safety but also preserves the quality of food products. Perishable items such as fresh produce, meat, and dairy products have specific temperature requirements to maintain their flavour, texture, and nutritional value.

Incorrect temperature storage can accelerate the ripening of fruits and vegetables or lead to spoilage, resulting in financial losses. With readily available tools like CoolCheck and compliance auditing solutions, businesses can ensure product integrity throughout the supply chain.

Proper temperature management enables businesses to deliver high-quality products consistently. This fosters customer satisfaction, builds brand loyalty, and strengthens the company’s market reputation.

Compliance with Regulations

Adhering to food safety regulations is crucial for businesses in the food industry. Many jurisdictions mandate specific guidelines for temperature control, and non-compliance can lead to fines, legal actions, and reputational damage.

Investing in digital HACCP compliance automation and tools like the Kelsius Audit App allows businesses to meet regulatory requirements while safeguarding public health. Regular audits, accurate documentation, and comprehensive staff training on temperature protocols ensure compliance and mitigate risks of penalties.

Reducing Waste and Improving Efficiency

Inefficiencies in temperature control contribute to significant food waste, which accounts for nearly one-third of all food produced globally. This waste not only results in financial losses but also raises environmental concerns.

Implementing effective temperature management solutions, such as wireless temperature monitoring, can help businesses reduce spoilage, cut down on waste, and enhance operational efficiency.

Additionally, efficient temperature management improves supply chain processes. Businesses can better predict inventory needs, optimize stock levels, and respond more effectively to market demands. This saves time and resources while reducing environmental impacts.

Conclusion

Maintaining effective temperature control is essential for businesses in the food supply chain. It ensures food safety, preserves quality, meets regulatory requirements, and minimises waste.

Companies that prioritise temperature management solutions, such as automated temperature monitoring and digital HACCP systems, position themselves for success in a competitive marketplace. By fostering consumer trust and enhancing operational efficiency, these businesses can drive long-term growth.
