What is Cold Chain?

Cold Chain refers to the transport and delivery of perishable food products from farm to fork, spanning across various control points in the supply chain under controlled temperate conditions.  The establishment and sustaining of the Cold Chain are essential ingredients for upholding the safety of consumers and protection of public health while preserving the nutritional and sensory qualities of perishable food products.  The Cold Chain management process provides intrinsic benefits to retailers and consumers through lengthening the retail shelf life of the perishable food product without increasing health risks through slowing down the microbial spoilage and biological contamination.
