Challenges
Cold chain infrastructure is highly needed to reduce product spoilage and preserve the shelf life of products ranging from vegetables to vaccines. Currently, this infrastructure is not widely available and when it is, it is expensive. Additionally, technical expertise related to cold chain infrastructure is hard to find or very expensive. FreezeLink emerged as a response to these challenges.
Solutions
FreezeLink solves these problems by providing customers with solar-enabled cold chain logistics on a pay-as-you-use basis while delivering the technical knowledge needed to build, maintain and repair the infrastructure.
The Ghanaian company sells temperature-controlled storage, transport, distribution, and engineering services to customers to handle perishable food and pharmaceutical products in West Africa.
