A cold chain is a low-temperature operating supply chain. The term “unbroken cold chain” refers to an uninterrupted sequence of refrigerated production, storage, and distribution processes, together with the related machinery and logistics, that maintain quality by working within a predetermined low temperature range. Products like fresh fruit, seafood, frozen food, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals are among those for which it is used to protect, prolong, and ensure the shelf life. When they are in transit or transit storage, these goods are frequently referred to as cool cargo. It is common practice to refer to cold chain items as “cargo” for their entire logistical life because, in contrast to other goods or merchandise, they are perishable and always en route to their usage or destination, even while temporarily kept in cold stores.
According to SPER Market Research, ‘UAE Cold Chain Market Size- By Temperature, By Ownership, By Mode of Freight, By Type of Freight, By End User – Regional Outlook, Competitive Strategies and Segment Forecast to 2032′ states that the UAE cold chain market is estimated to reach USD XX billion by 2032 with a CAGR of XX%.
Consumers are growing increasingly aware of the significance of their health and well-being as well as the effects that food ingredients—especially protein—have on the development of the entire body and mind. Perishable food consumption patterns, including those of dairy products, fruits, vegetables, and high-protein animal products (including meat, eggs, fish, and shellfish), have changed as a result of this. Convenient food products are in more demand as a result of growing urbanization. Dairy and frozen dessert sales are also rising as a result of consumers’ growing preference for convenience and longer shelf lives, which also helps to increase the acceptability of healthy frozen meals.

In the food sector, keeping food safe and fresh by delaying spoiling, deterioration, and early expiration is a major concern for producers, distributors, and customers. The modernization of cold storage facilities, cars, and system technology are investments that service providers must make in order to achieve this. Conversely, rising energy prices—which are particularly high in North America and Europe—are becoming a concern for cold chain suppliers. Ordinary fluorescent lights are used in refrigerated storage facilities, and they are required by law to be on year-round. The cold chain, pre-cooling facilities, refrigerated storage and transportation, packaging, and information management systems are among the infrastructure areas where a number of governments have tried to expand investment.
The COVID-19 pandemic has positively impacted the cold chain industry in the United Arab Emirates. The market is expanding because of the rise in demand for cold chain facilities, such as storage and transportation, especially for pharmaceutical products. Over the course of the pandemic, there has been an increase in demand for cold chain services nationwide to facilitate the shipment of vaccines and other temperature-sensitive goods, including pharmaceuticals. Thus, this has resulted in the formation of corporate partnerships for the domestic and international distribution of vaccines, which calls for the use of cold transportation.
