CJ Logistics to open rail-connected cold store

New Century, Kansas, USA: CJ Logistics America plans a new rail connected cold store in 2025 in Kansas City. The cold store, a joint development with Yukon Real Estate Partners and BGO, will be attached to Upfield’s New Century factory by conveyor bridge allowing product to be delivered directly into the warehouse.

There is currently 100,000sq ft available for other customers. “The opening of this new facility continues the momentum from our announcement earlier this year of our new cold storage warehouse in Gainesville, Georgia,” Kevin Coleman, chief executive, CJ Logistics, said.

“We see the frozen and refrigerated food market increasing significantly in the coming years. Both of these new buildings expand our capabilities and reach, positioning CJ Logistics as a top supply chain and logistics partner.
