Zeal Refrigeration technician Ali Zaid was introduced to the trade by family.
“My older brother is a coldroom specialist and recommended refrigeration when I finished school,” Ali says.
Zeal is in the business of commercial refrigeration including freezers, fridges, ice machines, under bench refrigeration, display fridges, walk-in cold rooms, walk-in freezer rooms, and ice cream machines.
It’s a job that keeps Ali busy and there are plenty of challenges. “In some ways that is the best part of the job but it can also be physically and mentally exhausting at the end of the day,” he says.
Due to the varied nature of the work Ali is always meeting new people. “
That’s my favourite part of the job being able to meet so many different people,” he says.
Ali says he wants to stick with commercial refrigeration and eventually learn more about transport refrigeration.
