Abstract

A large container (13) comprising internal thermal insulation (26), a cooling unit (21) for cooling the interior of the large container (13), and a lockable access opening (16) that allows a person access to the interior. The large container is characterized in that a plurality of stacked shelf elements (27) are positioned along a longitudinal side wall (15) of the large container (13) in such a way that the shelf elements (27) can be loaded with products to be cooled from the interior, the longitudinal side wall (15) further comprising at least one dispensing opening (20) that allows the products to be removed from the outside. The large container enables products to be continuously removed from the shelf elements, while the shelf elements can be simultaneously restocked, thus ensuring a continuous supply of cooled products in a simple manner.
