The Problem

In developing countries, 45% of food spoils mainly due to lack of cold storage

470 million small farmers loses 25% of their annual income

Perishable food especially fresh fruits and vegetables start to deteriorate as soon as they are harvested because they are cut off from their source of water and nutrition. They lose weight, texture, flavor, nutritional value and appeal. Cooling significantly slows down the rate of deterioration, thereby increasing the storage life of the produce.

The Solution

Innovative End-To-End Cold Chain Solutions with Integrated Packaging and Digital Technology.

At ColdHubs, we reduce post-harvest losses of fresh fruits, vegetables and other perishable food and enhance food security by delivering reliable, innovative cold chain solutions across Nigeria.

We deploy our state-of-the-art 100% solar powered cold storages and IcePoints at key points along the fresh produce supply chain.

Connect our cold storages and IcePoints with temperature-controlled transportation services, which ensures that fresh produce and other sensitive items, stay fresh and reach their destinations in perfect condition.

We provide durable plastic crates designed for efficient and hygienic transport, minimizing damage and spoilage.

Our ColdConnect App simplifies logistics, offering real-time tracking, scheduling, and management of cold storage and transport needs.
