Comment on ideas for deadspace behind fridge

So it’s ~3ft high, 4ft deep, and runs along the wall we are looking at behind the cupboard around 7ft?
I’m assuming the frame on the left is a doorway, as you walk through that door is there a wall on your right that you can make an opening in for this space?
Having a direct shot along the 7ft length you could make some simple trolly platforms or just store boxes along the length with straps attached so you can pull them out from the back.
I have a similar space in my garage over my porch, where I have a pressurised air cylinder, that’s probably more use in a garage than a kitchen… but you could dry your plates really really fast.

Do you know if a trolley or track product I can install there? I’m in really stages of research, but it does seem that closing that hole and accessing it from the left-hand doorway is a good option if I can figure out how to “move that space” out using some kind of wheels or bearings. Thanks!

I’d start with a search for “unistrut” tracks as these are pretty standard across multiple industries and applications, which makes them cheap, then add “wheel trolly”.
One track down each side 4 trolleys per board and make each board two and a bit feet long and you can have 3 down there. Attach them together with some webbing and a couple of snap fasteners, so you can pull each board out and remove it or just let it dangle down the wall.
