India is the world’s largest producer of milk & second largest producer of fruits and vegetables. The country has a substantial production capability of marine, aqua, meat, and poultry products. This sector requires temperature-controlled logistics. In FY 2022, the market size of the Indian Cold Chain market was valued at INR 1,814.9 billion and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 12.3% during 2023-2028 period.
However, delivering perishable goods in rural areas poses more significant challenges than in urban areas, such as inadequate temperature control infrastructure, unreliable power supply for refrigeration, and limited cold storage facilities. Not to mention, traditional ad-hoc cooling solutions pose an inordinate amount of health risks. Overcoming these challenges presents a significant opportunity for the logistics industry to expand its reach in rural areas and tap into the vast potential of the Indian market.
