Cold Chain Specialization
Specialization has led many companies to rely not only on major shipping service providers but also on more focused industry specialists that have developed a niche logistical expertise around the shipping of temperature sensitive products. Their capacity for understanding local rules, customs and environmental conditions as well as for an estimation of the length and time of a distribution route makes them an important factor in global trade. As a result, the logistics industry is experiencing a growing level of specialization and segmentation of cold chain shipping in several potential niche markets within global commodity chains. Whole new segments of the distribution industry have been very active in taking advantage of the dual development of the spatial extension of supply chains supported by globalization and the significant variety of goods in circulation. From an economic development perspective, the cold chain enables many developing countries to take part in the global perishable products market. From a geographical perspective, the cold chain has the following impacts:
Global. Specialization of agricultural functions permitting the transportation of temperature sensitive food products to distant markets. Enables the distribution of vaccines and other pharmaceutical or biological products.
Regional. Can support the specialization of functions and economies of scale such as specialized laboratories.
Local. Timely distribution to the final consumer, namely grocery stores and restaurants
