Turkey’s cold chain industry is set to soar as demand for chilled and frozen food surges across
the country.
The growth of Turkey’s cold chain market in the long run will be supported by the building up of
new infrastructure and expansion of existing companies into the eastern region of the country.
The confectionary, ice-cream and frozen food industry in the country is anticipated to grow
exponentially during the next five years which will further enhance the demand for cold storage
and transport facilities.
Turkey has a huge advantage because of its geographical position in the Mediterranean region.
The country is an important link between the European and Asian continent. Increase in trade
between these continents will directly affect growth of the cold chain sector in the country in a
positive manner. Growth in revenues of the cold transport market in the short run will be
primarily because of the increasing number of supermarkets, food service establishments and
other outlets in the country. In the long run, infrastructural development in the country will
support the cold chain industry. The total road network as of 2017 in Turkey is around 66,774
kilometer; by 2035 the government plans to build 4,130 km of new motorways which will
significantly increase the reach and penetration of the cold chain industry all over the country.
Considering the current demand several new cold storage warehousing facilities are expected
to come up in Turkey over the period 2018-2022. This is likely to provide significant boost to the
cold chain warehousing market of Turkey.
Several new technological advancements; both in the sector of cold storage and cold transport
will make their way in to the market in the near future. EDI (Electronic Data Interchange),
drones, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), robots and lithium-ion (Li-ion) power cells have
revolutionary applications in the cold chain industry. Global acceptance of these technologies
will make it imperative for the Turkish industry to upgrade itself which will further increase the
efficiency and healthy competition in the industry.
