Abstract

A refrigerated merchandiser (10) and a method for operating a refrigerated merchandiser. The refrigerated merchandiser (10) can include a case (18), a first modular refrigeration unit (14), and a second modular refrigeration unit (14). The first modular refrigeration unit can be removably coupled to the case in fluid communication with a first refrigeration zone (34) to maintain the first refrigeration zone at a first temperature. The second modular refrigeration unit can be removably coupled to the case in fluid communication with a second refrigeration zone (34) to maintain the second refrigeration zone at a second temperature. The method can include removably positioning the first modular refrigeration unit and the second modular refrigeration unit in the refrigerated merchandiser, and maintaining the first refrigerated zone at a first temperature and the second refrigerated zone at a second temperature.
