HISTORY & BREAKTHROUGHS
British fishermen used natural ice to preserve their fish stock piles1797
Movement of food from rural areas to urban consumption marketsLate 1820’s
Mechanical refrigeration and Air-conditioning plant patented by Dr. John Gorrie
1851s
Trade of food between colonial powers and their coloniesFrance received mutton carcasses from South America Great Britain imported frozen beef from Australia, pork from New Zealand
1870s
The refrigerated railroad car was patented by J.B. Sutherland of Detroit1867
600,000 tons of frozen meat was being brought into Great Britain alone.1910

1857 The first shipment of refrigerated beef was made from the Chicago stockyards to the East in an ordinary box car packed with ice.
1866 Parker Earle of Illinois shipped strawberries in iced boxes by rail from southern Illinois to Chicago.
1867 The first patent for a specialized refrigerator car (US Patent #71,423) was issued to JB Sutherland of Detroit, Michigan.
1868 William Davis of Detroit developed a refrigerator car cooled by a frozen ice-salt mixture, and patented it in the USA. The patent was sold to George Hammond, a local meat packer who went on to amass a fortune in refrigerated shipping.
1869 Henry Peyton Howard (1829-1913) of the United States transported a shipload of beef frozen in a salt-ice mixture from Indianola, Texas, to New Orleans and served it in hospitals, hotels and restaurants.
1873 Timothy C. Eastman exported chilled beef by ship from America to London, and shortly thereafter built up his trade to an annual tonnage of around 10,000 t. The insulated cargo space was cooled by ice, which was loaded on departure. The success of this method was limited by distance and climate.
1876-1877
French engineer Charles Tellier and the steamship Frigorifique achieved the first overseas shipment of meat under artificial refrigeration. Three methyl-ether refrigerating machines kept the cargo in a chilled state during the 12,000 km voyage from France to Argentina and the return trip. The preservation of the meat was less than perfect; full success would have to wait until the voyage of the Paraguay.

1877-1878
The French vessel Paraguay, equipped with refrigeration machinery by Ferdinand Carré, traveled from France to Buenos Aires and back. 150 t of meat, kept at -27 to -30 deg C, arrived in Argentina in excellent condition after 50 days.
1878 Gustavus F. Swift (1839-1903) of the United States put into operation a refrigerator car to ship fresh meats. The car body was well insulated and the interior cooled by ice. Fifteen years later the operation had expanded to 97 thousand units.
1879 Henry Bell (1848-1931) and John Bell (1850-1929) of Scotland and Joseph James Coleman (1838-1888) of England completed the Bell-Coleman dense-air machine on the Anchor liner Circassia, which successfully brought a cargo of chilled beef from the USA to London.
1879-1880
The Strathleven, equipped with a Bell-Coleman air machine and loaded with beef, mutton, butter and kegs, sailed from Melbourne to London and arrived with the frozen cargo in good condition after a 9-week voyage of about 24,000 km.
1880 The first patent for a mechanically refrigerated railcar was issued in the USA (#230615, to Charles William Cooper).
1881 Alfred Seale Haslam (1844-1927) of England equipped the liner Orient with Haslamrefrigeration compressors. He bought the Bell-Coleman dense-air patents in 1878 and eventually equipped four hundred plants and ships with Bell-Coleman machines.

1885 Berries from the Norfolk (Virginia) area were shipped by refrigerator car to New York.
1887 Parker Earle joined F.A. Thomas of Chicago in the fruit shipping business. The company owned 60 ice-cooled railcars by 1888, and 600 by 1891.
1888 An experimental Chicago-to-Florida shipment of beef from Armour and Company was made in a car cooled by ethyl chloride compression machinery.
1888 Florida oranges reached New York under refrigeration for the first time.
1889 The first cooled shipment of deciduous fruit from California entered the New York market.
1890 In London, first mechanically refrigerated barge introduced.
1890 After acquiring the patent rights of Franz Windhausen's CO2-compression refrigeration system, J. & E. Hall installed the first marine CO2 machine on the Highland Chief.
1898 Russia put its first refrigerator cars into service. Russia had 1900 such cars by 1908, 3000 by 1910, 5900 by 1916. The cars were employed mainly for transport of Siberian butter. The journey from Siberia to Baltic ports lasted about 12 days. Reicing stations were set up each 2000 km.

1899 Refrigerated fruit traffic within the USA reached 90,000 t per year. Transport from California to NY averaged 12 days in 1900.
1900 A worldwide survey found 356 refrigerated ships, 37% of which had air machines, 37% ammonia compressors and 25% CO2 compressors.
1900 Refrigerator cars in the USA numbered about 50,000.1900 During the year, Great Britain imported 360,000 metric tons of refrigerated meat:
220,000 t from Argentina, 95,000 t from New Zealand, and 45,000 t from Australia.1901 The first refrigerated banana ship, the Port Morant, was equipped with a CO2
machine and carried 23,000 stems at controlled temperature from Jamaica to England.
1901 Carl von Linde equipped a Russian train with a mobile mechanical refrigeration plant to distribute cooling to the cars carrying the goods. Similar systems continued to be used in Russia through at least 1975.
1902 According to a study of Lloyd's Register, 460 ships had refrigerating plants in 1902. The marine refrigeration industry at this time was dominated by the British.
1904 US pomologist G. Harold Powell introduced the technique of precooling, or removing field heat from the crop as rapidly as possible before transport.

1906 Pacific Fruit Express began operations with more than 6,000 refrigerated cars, transporting fruit and vegetables across the United States from Western producers to Eastern consumers.
1907 US traffic in refrigerated fruit reached a yearly total of 600,000 t, up from 430,000 t in 1905.
1910 Great Britain refrigerated meat imports rose to 760,000 t/year.
1910 By this time British company J. & E. Hall had installed 1800 CO2 refrigeration machines in ships.
1913 British fleet included 230 refrigerated ships with total cargo capacity of 440,000 t.
1913 The number of thermally insulated railcars in the USA amounted to about 100,000. Most of these were cooled by ice.
1923 London used 120 metal barges of 60 to 120 t, insulated or mechanically cooled, for transport of meat on inland waterways.
1925 The Pacific Fruit Express had 34,000 refrigerator cars and the Fruit Growers' Express 22,000.
1925-1930
Mechanically refrigerated road vehicles, especially for the delivery of milk and ice cream, began to appear around this time.

1931 The total volume of ice-cooled railcar cargo space in America was of the same order as that of public cold stores at the time (12.5 million m³, vs. 13 million m³).
1931 The number of refrigerator cars in the USA reached a maximum of about 183,000.1935 Refrigerated imports into Britain in 1935 totalled 1 million metric tons of meat,
500,000 t of butter, 130,000 t of cheese, 430,000 t of apples and pears, and 20 million stems of bananas.
1936 The Italian army used 150 refrigerated containers to transport frozen meat to its troops on the Ethiopian front. Great Britain and the Netherlands had also built prototype refrigerated containers by this time.
1939 The USA had roughly 18,000 vehicles for refrigerated road transport, between 2000-2500 of which were mechanically cooled. Many of the rest were kept cold by solid carbon dioxide ("dry ice"), regular ice, or eutectic plates. The number of these vehicles, as well as the proportion that were mechanically refrigerated, steadily grew during the next few decades with the growth of the trucking industry and the development of superhighways.

FOOD SECTORIncrease in frozen food consumption, meat, fish, canned, instant food itemsAcceptance of frozen vegetables, changing mindsetIncrease in per capita income increases dairy, poultry consumption
BIO-PHARMA SECTORDevelopment of vaccines,Increase in clinical trials logisticsIncreased share of refrigerated drugs
TECHNOLOGICAL TRENDSSome reefers are equipped with a water cooling system, which can be used if the reefer is stored below deck on a vessel without adequate ventilation to remove the heat generated.Water cooling systems are expensive, so modern vessels rely more on ventilation to remove heat from cargo holds, and the use of water cooling systems is declining.

Challenges• Lack of Road Infrastructure
• Continuity of the cold supply chain
• Uneven distribution of cold chains
• High capital investment
-Rs.80-90/sq.ft.($ 1.6-2.0) against Rs.30/sq.ft. ($ 0.6) in west
• Power supply
-17-18% power deficit
-30% of total expenses against 10% in west
• Management of different temperatures
• Awareness & Mindsets
• Error Irreversibility
-Highly temperature sensitive cargo54
Government Policy & Initiatives1. All the relevant schemes pertaining to the Cold Chain Industry have been outlined & a separate compendium has been prepared containing all these schemes.
2. A Special Purpose Vehicle has been set up for the Cold Chain Logistics
3. Setting up of National Centre for Cold Chain Development (NCCD).
NCCD Activities are:
• Training & Capacity Building
• Research & Development
• Building standards through International benchmarking
• Interaction with National / International bodies for development of cold chain infrastructure & trade in perishable
55
Government IncentivesSome of these incentives are
• Budget FY10-FY11 proposed a concessional import duty of 5% with full exemption from service tax to set up & expand cold chains. The proposal also included duty-free import of refrigeration unit, which is required to make refrigerated vans or trucks. It also exempted trailers & semi-trailers used in agriculture from excise duty
• The Budget exempted air-conditioning equipment & refrigeration panels used in cold chain infrastructure, including conveyor belts, from excise duty. It also extended excise duty exemption to conveyor belts.
• Budget FY09-FY10, GOI introduced tax benefits for companies making investments in setting up cold chain facilities
• Other past incentives include access to external commercial borrowings, 100% FDI & provision of up to 25% project costs involved in setting up cold storage facilities provided by the Government under the Capital Investment Subsidy Scheme
56
Need GapsLack of knowhow & trained manpower
Lack of backward & forward linkages to supplement cold chain (High VDC - Variable Distribution Cost)
High cost of power: Agricultural sector is offered subsidized power tariffs by the GOI
Cold chain industry is instead subjected to industrial power tariffs.
57
Need Gaps104 million metric tons
Perishable produce is transported between cities each year.
Only 4 million metric tons
moves via reefer mode.
Optimization in reefer transport
• Lack of two-way cargo movement/ back haulage
• delay timely deliveries and reduce the efficient utilization of fleets.
58
Need GapsInfrastructure: Coolers, warehouses, refrigerated trucks, carriers, shopping malls and others. Needs to study the potential risks and the return on investment (RoI)
Third-party logistics:
• Manual- handling reduces the product quality and life.
• Lack of end-to-end solutions. One can also adapt state-of-the-art techniques such as cross docking that will reduce the transit times and inventory.
FP industry: The Central government allows 100% FDI in this sector.
59
Need Gaps• Reefer location tracking challenges (Technology
effectiveness & penetration low)
• Discontinuous Energy Supply for hours (Backup power is very expensive)
• Lack of 3 Party solution providers for small players. Geographical and service range expanding on project basis from big players. Logistics providers with air conditioned trucks,
automatic handling equipment and trained manpower will provide end-to-end support.
• Education and awareness. Low acceptance due to high costs

TRENDSPPP model for supply chains
• Indian cold chain business is fragmented in a big way.
• Organised retailers can give a boost to the much needed supply chain logistics in the country.
• More private sector investment is required in the areas of infrastructure especially in warehousing, technology, cold chain and logistics in order to harness the full potential of the Indian food processing sector
