Increase in refrigerated warehouse
A lot of warehouses comprising refrigerated systems are designed to ensure the ideal storage and transportation conditions for temperature-sensitive products. Multiple export industries are dependent on the vital links that the refrigerated solution systems provide. Businesses invest billions of dollars in their cold chain operations to create effective, efficient, and reliable processes because end-to-end cold chain security is the weak link in the system. Single breakdown in the cold chain logistics chain can lead to catastrophic losses of products and capital. For instance, in September 2021, Pasarnow e-commerce company raised funding worth $3.3 billion for the up-gradation of its fragmented and inefficient supply chain, which includes temperature controlled warehouses and others that increase the productivity of the company. Thus, an increase in refrigerated warehouses is expected to fuel the growth of the refrigerated warehousing market during the forecast period.

The global refrigerated warehousing market is expected to witness significant growth owing to increasing demand for perishable goods, and increase in refrigerated warehouse.
In refrigerated warehouses, several new technologies have been introduced for easy storage & retrieval of goods. For instance, Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) unit load cranes are used to store & retrieve goods from the inventory. ASRS are engineered to handle unitized loads in and out of high-density storage. In addition, pallet shuttles uses a cart system to transport pallets quickly through deep-lane storage units. These carts make it possible to store, retrieve and manage products quickly & efficiently. Moreover, mini-load shuttle are utilized to store & retrieve small items in less space & time, and include lightweight alloys that increase speed.
Furthermore, Internet of Things (IoT) helps in providing sophisticated temperature tracking and monitoring solutions. IoT provides live data that allows unmatched visibility into every process and transaction within the refrigerated warehousing. For instance, in 2022, Fresh Factory- a cold-chain logistics company in Indonesia adopted a warehouse management system (WMS) that tracks the goods precisely when products are entered and left. In addition, it uses a fulfilment management system (FMS) that provides inventory-related information such as how much quantity is left at each point of sale.
