Buy commercial display cases (showcases) online in Canada: 770 products from brands like COLD, Igloo and Omcan, most priced $3,900 to $13,300 CAD. Display cases hold food at temperature where customers can see it: serve-over deli and meat showcases, gelato and ice cream cases, floor-standing cases for pastry and prepared food, sushi cases and countertop units for smaller spaces. Delis, butchers, bakeries, gelaterias, cafés and grocery counters choose them for how the product looks as much as how it is held, so glass shape, lighting and cooling method all matter.

Before you buy
- Decide whether staff serve from behind the case or customers help themselves, since serve-over cases load and open from the rear while self-serve cases open to the customer.
- Compare curved and straight front glass: curved glass gives a traditional look, while straight glass suits modern counters and lines up cleanly in a run of cases.
- Match the cooling method to the product: static cooling dries unwrapped meats and cheese less, while fan-assisted cooling gives a more even temperature for packaged items and cases that are restocked often.
- Check the case height and depth against your counter line and the sightline of a customer standing in front of it.
- Find out where the condenser takes in and exhausts air, and whether the case is self-contained or remote, before building a counter around it.
Common questions
Why does the glass on a refrigerated display case fog up?
- Fogging happens when warm, humid room air meets cold glass. Many cases use heated or double-pane glass and airflow across the glass to prevent it, but high humidity, a draft or a case placed near a dishwasher or steam table can still overwhelm it. Check the room conditions the case is rated for before choosing a spot.
Can food stay in a display case overnight?
- Many operators leave product in a refrigerated case overnight with night covers or blinds closed, while others move it to a walk-in or reach-in to protect quality. Unwrapped deli meats and pastries dry out faster in a display case than in covered storage, so decide product by product and check your health unit's expectations.
