Capacity Model
Cooler/freezer area × % floorstack × # tiers = pallet storage area
Pallet storage area ÷ ft2/pallet = pallet capacity in cooler
Pallet capacity × weekly turnover = pallets/week
Pallets/week × weeks/year × utilization rate = annual pallets
Annual pallets × cases/pallet = cases/year
Cases/year × pounds/case = annual pounds
Annual pounds ÷ avg. lbs/acre = acres needed
