A refrigerated retail unit has a supporting structure (22), at least one insulating open-topped container (20) that is movable with respect to the structure between a display position in which the interior of the container can be accessed through an access opening (28), and a full access position i n which the interior of the container can be accessed through most or all of i ts open top. The container is capable of substantially retaining cold air withi n when in the full access position. The unit further comprises a cooling means (36) for cooling the interior of the container and an insulating lid (26) supported by the structure. The container defines an overall top plan area that is partially covered by the lid when the container is in the display position, and the remainder of said area of the container not then covered b y the lid defines the access opening.
