Although, the market has witnessed incline in revenue during 2012-2017 but still the cold chain faces challenges such as high share of single commodity cold storage (dominated by potato), high initial investment, and lack of enabling infrastructure leading to poor quality produce.

The cold chain industry in India is still at a growth stage. Although, the market has witnessed incline in revenue during 2012-2017 but still the cold chain potential remain untapped due to certain reasons such as high share of single commodity cold storage (dominated by potato), high initial investment (for refrigerator units and land), lack of enabling infrastructure such as power & roads, lack of awareness for handling perishable produce and lapse of service either by the storage provider or the transporter leading to poor quality produce.
The growth of online grocery retail and food processing industry will further create demand for cold storage and transportation facilities as major players and QSR chains undertake expansion across various cities in the country. The demand from pharmaceutical industry is expected to grow at the fastest rate. This will be driven by prevalence of diseases which is expected to rise in the country owing to increase in the aging population. The proportion of population above 65 years of age is expected to increase from 6.1% in 2017 to approximately 7.0% in 2019. Further, favorable government initiative such as SAMPADA scheme will facilitate the growth of small and medium size cold chain companies. Implementation of GST is expected to drive the cold chain market revenue as the market will witness better integration of services and increased efficiency.
