India’s Cold Chain Needs a Reality Check: Towards a Smarter, Sustainable Future in 2026

India’s cold storage spaces are often half empty, but energy bills are fully charged. Broken receiving, temperature loss at docks, and unused space mean customers pay for storage they don’t use, leading to melting profit margins.

India loses ₹92,000 Crores each year to food wastage, with 40% caused by gaps in the cold chain. But what if technology flipped this situation?

Why Built-to-Suit Matters for Cold Chain Logistics

Every business is different—whether you’re handling fresh food, pharmaceuticals, or quick-commerce deliveries. A poorly designed cold storage can cause delays, temperature fluctuations, or hygiene issues that affect product quality and customer trust. A BTS facility ensures your cold chain is tailored perfectly to eliminate these hassles.

Why India’s Cold Chain Needs Transformation

High energy costs with low utilization
Temperature losses during receiving and storage
Wasted space in cold rooms
Lack of real-time data and automation
Customers pay for space booked, not used

Unlocking Potential with AI and WMS

Automate receiving and reduce turnaround times, avoiding delays that cause temperature deviations
Maximize racking with live pallet data for better space use
Auto-control temperature zones based on real-time conditions
