The Refrigerated & Frozen Foods Cold Storage Facility of the Year award honors a cold storage/3PL facility for its growth and leadership in the cold storage industry.

Open to U.S. cold storage warehouses/3PL providers operating temperature-controlled facilities for cold foods distribution. If a company has multiple facilities, nominations must be for a specific site/location. Food manufacturers/processors with onsite or owned cold storage/logistics operations are eligible.

Greenfield developments are invited to submit nominations; however, the facility does not need to be new! It must be currently operational.

Regardless of age or size, the cold storage facility must demonstrate how construction/expansions, food safety, sustainability, efficiency, etc. relate to its overall operation and customer satisfaction. Complete requirements are found in the submission form.

Submission deadline is June 30. Submissions will be judged by an editorial board with the winning facility featured on the cover of Refrigerated & Frozen Foods September eMagazine and on the From the Cold Corner podcast. Also featured in R&FF’s weekly eNewsletter and social media channels and shared across other BNP food and beverage brands.
