Vertical Cold Storage, a developer and operator of temperature-controlled distribution centers sponsored by real estate investment firm Platform Ventures, announced the grand opening of the Burleson, Texas facility. 

It’s Vertical Cold Storage’s second distribution center in the Dallas-Fort Worth market; the company purchased Lone Star Cold Storage of Richardson, Texas, in 2022. Both of Vertical Cold Storage’s facilities in the region feature blast freezing, case picking, kitting, labeling and more.

“Our Richardson facility is on the Dallas side of the DFW market and Burleson is on the Fort Worth side of the market, so now we can provide our customers with cooler, freezer, deep-freeze, blast freezing, case picking, and a broad range of other temperature-controlled services from both sides of the market,” said West Hutchison, president and CEO of Vertical Cold Storage.

The 400,000-square-foot Burleson facility, located adjacent to Interstate 35, with an average clear height of 55 feet and 53 dock doors. It includes multiple rooms convertible to negative 20 degrees Fahrenheit and is well-suited for a wide range of frozen and refrigerated food and other perishable products.
