Cold Chain Market size to grow at a CAGR of 17.43% from 2022 to 2027; Use of RFID in cold chain logistics expected to drive market growth – Technavio

NEW YORK, May 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The cold chain market size is estimated to grow by USD 358.49 billion from 2022 to 2027. However, the growth momentum will progress at a CAGR of 17.43% during the forecast period. The market is segmented by Application (Meat fish and seafood, Fruits vegetables and beverages, Dairy and frozen desserts, Bakery and confectionery, and Healthcare), Type (Refrigerated warehouse and Refrigerated transportation), and Geography (North America, APAC, Europe, South America, and Middle East and Africa). The market share growth by the meat fish and seafood segment will be significant during the forecast period. It is the largest segment of the global cold chain and is expected to remain the largest segment throughout the forecast period. Products such as meat should be refrigerated or frozen after processing and before shipment in order to limit the growth of pathogens and reduce the risk of spoilage. The use of RFID in cold chain logistics is one of the key factors driving the global cold chain market growth. Cold chain logistics transport millions of tons of perishable and temperature-sensitive products. The products are manufactured, stored, transported, or distributed around the world. They include vegetables, fruits, fish, flowers, meat, and dairy products as well as medical products such as blood, medicines, organs, vaccines, plasma, and tissues. All of the products are temperature sensitive, affecting their quality. Hence, such factors influence the growth of the market during the forecast period. Download a Sample Report in minutes!

• Hence, such trends influence the growth of the cold chain market during the forecast period.

Key challenges – 

• Lack of infrastructure in developing countries is a major challenge that can impede the growth of the market. 
• Owing to the fixed costs of establishing and maintaining a cold chain, cold chain penetration is low in developing countries such as India.
• Customers, especially farmers, do not opt for refrigeration in these countries because of the increased operating costs and higher prices for products such as fruits and vegetables.
• For instance, when a farmer uses the cold chain to improve supply chain management, the price of the product can increase and affect profitability.
• Hence, such challenges hinder the market growth during the forecast period.
