One of the changes in consumer behavior during the pandemic that is sticking is frozen food purchasing.
According to the American Frozen Food Institute, the supermarket frozen food department was one of the biggest generators of sales growth in 2022, with a whopping $72.2 billion spent.
All of that food — frozen seafood, processed meat, snacks, and ice cream are just some of the items — has to maintain proper temperature throughout a long cold-chain storage pipeline before reaching the home.
But this refrigeration technology, critical to the food supply, is often outdated, especially in an era of advanced semiconducting applications across electronics.
The company leases these reusable totes to grocery stores and retailers, which can use them to bifurcate a payload into three independent temperature zones.
