ConnectedFresh for Restaurants

Food safety monitoring that runs itself — for restaurants.

Automated temperature logs, walk-in cooler monitoring, and HACCP-ready records for every location — with instant alerts the moment something drifts. If you serve food, this is table stakes.

The problem

Your walk-in doesn’t fail during service. It fails at 2:14 AM.

Clipboard temp logs only capture the moment someone writes them down. Everything in between — the overnight compressor failure, the propped door, the cool-down that stalled — goes unrecorded until it becomes lost product or a failed health inspection. ConnectedFresh replaces the clipboard with continuous, automated monitoring and health inspection readiness that’s built in, not bolted on.

Manual temp logs get pencil-whipped during the rush — and inspectors can tell.
Walk-ins fail overnight. Nobody finds out until the morning prep crew opens the door.
Cool-down logs are tedious to capture by hand — and the first thing to slip.
One missed excursion can cost $10K+ in product — more than a year of monitoring.

HACCP & the Food Code

Built around the numbers your inspector checks.

The FDA Food Code 2022 sets the thresholds: cold holding at 41°F or below, hot holding at 135°F or above, and two-stage cooling from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours, then down to 41°F within 4 more. ConnectedFresh monitors every unit against those numbers continuously — and produces the time-stamped HACCP records that turn a health inspection into a formality.

What we deploy

Your restaurant stack.

The six solutions we deploy most for restaurants. Every one works out of the box — about 15 minutes from unboxing to live data.

Automated Temperature Logging

Automated temperature logs for every cooler, freezer, and prep area — HACCP-ready, no clipboards.

Automated Cool Down Logs

Two-stage cool-downs monitored end to end, with stall alerts and compliance-ready logs.

Learn more

Automated Food Safety Printing

Time-stamped logs and compliance records printed automatically via Star Micronics printers.

Learn more

Predictive Maintenance

Temp and energy sensors together flag failing compressors before they take out a walk-in.

Learn more

Energy Consumption

Asset health and usage monitoring — no electrician required. Spot waste across locations.

Learn more

Door Analytics

Every open, close, and ajar moment logged — for energy, food safety, and pest control readiness.

Integration

Standalone or integrated. Your call.

We don’t force you into our ecosystem. ConnectedFresh can be your full monitoring platform, or act as the hardware and data layer beneath the systems your operation already runs on.

Standalone

Our dashboard, alerts, and automated reporting — ready the day your sensors arrive. No third-party software required.

Integrated

Feed telemetry and alarms into your back-office, facilities, or food safety platform via webhooks, APIs, or flat files.

Multi-location

One roll-up view across every store — corporate and franchise. Compare locations, spot outliers, standardize compliance.

What we monitor

Back of house, covered end to end.

One platform, right sensor for the job. Whether it’s a single walk-in or the whole line across dozens of locations, the system scales with you.

Walk-in coolers & freezers

Continuous walk-in cooler monitoring with instant alerts the moment temps drift — not the next morning.

Reach-ins & lowboys

Every prep-line unit logged automatically, 24/7 — including the ones nobody checks during a rush.

Cool-downs

Two-stage cooling tracked from 135°F down to 41°F, with stall alerts and auto-generated logs.

Hot holding

Soups, sauces, and hot wells verified at 135°F or above through every service.

Walk-in doors

Know when a door is propped open before it costs you a weekend of prep.

Equipment health

Compressors flag rising power draw before they fail on a Friday night.

Energy usage

Spot inefficient equipment and runaway utility costs across locations.

Compliance records

Automated temperature logs for restaurants — time-stamped, audit-ready, exportable.

How it works

Live before the lunch rush.

No wiring, no Wi-Fi credentials, no IT project. Our managed service handles the complexity so your team doesn’t have to.

01

Scope

We walk through your equipment, thresholds, and compliance requirements with your team.

02

Pre-configure

Sensors and gateways arrive labeled and calibrated for each unit — no IT ticket required.

03

Plug in

Power the gateway. Place the sensors. Data starts flowing in about 15 minutes.

04

We watch the monitors

Why ConnectedFresh

What sets us apart.

LoRaWAN-native

Long range, low power, 5–10 year battery life. No Wi-Fi credentials, no crowded 2.4 GHz bands, no dead zones behind the line.

Managed, not self-serve

Sensor dies, we replace it. Something looks off, we call you. You run the kitchen, we run the monitoring.

Integration-first

Data goes where you need it — our dashboard, your back-office platform, or your food safety system.

U.S.-based team

Support, onboarding, and monitoring operations based in the United States.

Frequently asked

Questions we get from restaurant operators.

Yes. Sensors capture automated temperature logs for every walk-in, reach-in, and freezer around the clock. Records are time-stamped, tamper-proof, and export-ready for HACCP audits and health inspections — no more clipboard rounds.

The FDA Food Code 2022 requires cold holding at 41°F or below, hot holding at 135°F or above, and two-stage cooling: 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours, then down to 41°F within 4 more. ConnectedFresh monitors against these thresholds automatically — and they’re fully configurable to your local code.

That’s the core of it. Luna Grill went from a 15% cool-down audit pass rate to 98% after switching to automated logging. When the inspector asks for records, you pull a report instead of a binder.

No. Sensors use long-range LoRaWAN wireless with 5–10 year battery life. The gateway plugs into a standard outlet — most kitchens are live in about 15 minutes.

Most customers see payback in under 6 months. One busy Chick-fil-A location documents $40K+ in savings per year — over $80K to date — from prevented product loss, energy, and labor.

Sleep better tonight.

Your coolers, your doors, your equipment - monitored 24/7. If something goes wrong, you'll know before it costs you.
