ITL Engages Customers in Cold Chain Solutions Dialogue

Vietnam’s Cold Chain market is entering a new phase of growth, driven by the continuous expansion of agricultural, seafood and food imports and exports, as well as the domestic distribution - retail, food service, and healthcare-pharmaceutical sectors.

According to a report by FiinGroup, the soaring demand for cold storage and refrigerated transport propelled Vietnam’s cold chain market to an compound annual growth rate of 12.4% between 2021–2024. At the same time, warehouse infrastructure has expanded rapidly, with 27 new cold storage facilities added, boosting the national designed capacity to reach 1.3mn pallets by the end of 2024.

Cold storage capacity in Vietnam is expected to exceed 1.7mn pallets by 2028. The cold transportation fleet has also expanded gradually, reaching nearly 1,500 trucks managed by professional providers as of the end of 2024.

Beyond scaling up, businesses using cold chain services are also placing greater expectations on a comprehensive Cold Chain solution that can ensure product quality control, optimize costs, and guarantee product transparency, in order to meet the increasingly rigorous standards of both consumers and international markets.

Demonstrating its ecosystem capabilities in response to these trends, ITL Logistics hosted its first-ever specialized cold chain workshop - the ITL Logistics Cold Chain Workshop - on June 18 at the ITL Logistics Distribution Center in VSIP 1, Ho Chi Minh City.
