Launch of National Centre for Cold Chain Development, subsidy scheme for setting up a cold storage, increase in horticulture produce were the key factors driving growth in India Cold Chain Market.
The cold chain industry in India remains underserved and presents huge potential in terms of expansion. Market revenue has shown positive growth during 2012-2017 driven by growing demand from food processing industry, QSR chains and supermarket chains. The modern retail industry increased at a growth rate of 17.5% from 2015 to 2016 aided by easier access to credit and payment options, increasing internet penetration and speed, 24-hour accessibility and convenient and secured transactions. The food and beverage retail has accounted for 70.0% of the retail market revenue in FY’2015.
The cold storage market further augmented with the set up of mega food parks by the government of India which has led to the growth of processed food sector. Some major Mega Food Parks include Patanjali Food and Herbal Park, Haridwar, Srini Food Park, Chittoor, North East Mega Food Park, Nalbari, International Mega Food Park, Fazilka, Integrated Food Park,Tumku and Jharkhand Mega Food Park. Government of India encouraged investments in cold storages for more efficient distribution of farm produce and recommended several steps to strengthen the agriculture supply chain by developing robust cold chain infrastructure. Ministry of Food Processing Industries has been constantly involved in setting up new cold chain infrastructure which has both cold storage and processing facilities. The Ministry announced sanction of 30 Cold Chain Projects in 2015. Further, the logistics sector has been one of the biggest beneficiaries with the implementation of GST.
