Oasis Bakery, Fairfield

Oasis is family owned and operated business in Fairfield, Victoria, making and selling Middle Eastern food, but also selling a much larger selection of food from all over Australia and all over the world, plus a café with a focus on fast casual Middle Eastern dining.

To complement the focus on food that promotes a healthy and vital lifestyle, the café offers a vibrant atmosphere with a selection of quality food from shawarmas and falafel to Oasis’s signature Lebanese BBQ and Lebanese pizzas.

“We are proud that we’ve built a really efficient store, having taken great steps to maximise the energy efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of the store,” says George Nercessian, Operations Manager of Ultra Refrigeration who oversaw the installation at Oasis Bakery.

A large part of this involved the selection and installation of an integrated refrigeration/HVAC system using CO² as refrigerant. Other major initiatives were the installation of highly efficient store lighting, using a sophisticated building management system to manage the refrigeration, HVAC and lighting. Oasis also installed highly efficient cooking equipment in the kitchens. 

Having doors on refrigeration units have increased energy efficiency as well as customer comfort. “We wouldn’t consider another store without these doors,” says George. 

“My experience with the Hussmann team has been great. Our account manager is very helpful always enthusiastic and cooperative and makes things as easy as possible to get the job done.”
