Thinking about the acquisition of cold storage space as an expense can be misguided since in many instances it can actually end up being a profit-making move.
1. Larger shipments are more economical
Access to a lot of space allows companies to order raw materials and/ or stock in bulk and to receive and ship out large product batches, decreasing the price per unit in the process. Therefore each additional cold storage upgrade can translate directly into greater business volume.
2. Reduction of waste
Perhaps the most significant savings that cold storage solutions create come from more effective protection of sensitive goods in storage. Improperly kept products may decay due to atmospheric influences, resulting in spoilage. Utilising refrigerated containers during the critical stages of manufacturing and distribution is a smart way to reduce waste and increase the percentage of successfully delivered goods. The impact of this measure is practically instant, so it doesn’t take long for the initial investment into cold storage capacity to pay for itself.
3. Faster service facilitates customer loyalty
Companies that have refrigerated containers on their premises may stand a better chance of growing their stock inventory, meeting customer demand faster, and therefore strengthening their brand.
