United States Cold Chain Logistics Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the United States Cold Chain Logistics Market is estimated to reach USD 139.7 Billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 6.1%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the United States Cold Chain Logistics Market, including market size and trends, product mix, applications, and supplier analysis. Cold chain logistics is the careful control of temperature-sensitive products during storage and transportation. It protects the integrity and quality of products such as food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals by keeping them at certain temperatures, such as chilled or frozen, to prevent spoiling, degradation, or loss of efficacy.
- June 2023: Honour Foods, a Burris Logistics food service redistribution company, has purchased Sunny Morning Foods, a dairy-focused food service redistributor in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Sunny Morning Foods expands its portfolio and solidifies its position as a top food service redistributor in the Mid-Atlantic, New England, and Southeast areas.
- May 2023: Americold Logistics, a global leader in temperature-controlled warehouses and food logistics, announced the grand opening of a facility extension in Santa Perpetua, Barcelona, Spain. The extension includes 11 loading bays and 12,000 pallet places, increasing capacity for temperature-controlled products and services for regional clients.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
The US cold chain logistics market is expanding rapidly due to rising demand for perishable commodities, shifting consumer preferences, and a thriving pharmaceutical industry. Key market participants are working on improving their cold chain infrastructure, investing in cutting-edge technologies, and implementing sustainable practices. The market is likely to grow further in the coming years, owing to reasons such as the emergence of e-commerce, the requirement for food safety and quality assurance, and the pharmaceutical industry's increased globalisation.
The factors driving demand for the cold chain logistics market in the United States include the importation of perishables, the expansion of the pharmaceutical business, particularly in the biologics sector, the rising consumption of frozen foods, and rules pertaining to pharmaceutical temperature monitoring. Players are implementing technologies such as robotics, machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, automation of distribution centres, and ware to improve customer experience, cut costs, and raise operational efficiency.
Nevertheless, a few obstacles that can prevent the market from expanding are the lack of workers in the transportation and warehousing industry, the high energy needs, and the detrimental environmental effects of cold chain logistics operations. Some businesses are launching solutions that raise the energy needed to operate the cold chain infrastructure in order to address the issues of excessive energy requirements and detrimental environmental effects.
Market Competitive Landscape
The cold chain logistics business in the United States is highly fragmented, which facilitates both domestic and international delivery of temperature-sensitive items.
