Konop Refrigeration, Inc. has been a significant player in the commercial refrigeration industry since its inception in 1958. Founded by Robert Konop in Green Bay, WI, the company initially focused on selling refrigeration units when the technology was still in its infancy, relying on ammonia as a primary refrigerant. Over time, the company evolved and expanded its services, particularly with the addition of Mark Konop in 1980, who brought expertise in logistics and established a robust refrigeration parts division.
By 1991, the Konops shifted their focus solely onto commercial refrigeration, allowing them to streamline their operations and provide equipment at exceptionally competitive prices. Their low-overhead business model facilitated the growth of a national and international sales network, broadening their reach and impact in the market. Today, the company handles hundreds of service calls each month and excels in customer care through a dedicated team of refrigeration specialists.
In September 2022, Skye Caldie succeeded Mark Konop as the owner and President of Konop Refrigeration after over 40 years of service. With over 12 years of experience at the company, Skye possesses an intricate understanding of the operations, ensuring continuity and a family-oriented atmosphere that prevails in the company's culture. The mission of Konop Refrigeration is to provide outstanding service in a timely manner, supported by a comprehensive network of technicians across the United States and Canada.
Konop Refrigeration represents over 75 manufacturers, delivering tailored service solutions to meet the specific demands of their clients. Their commitment to quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness ensures that customers receive the best possible care and support. Furthermore, with a vast parts library, they specialize in locating hard-to-find components for refrigeration systems, facilitating swift repairs and minimization of downtime for their clients.
