21.01.2025
National cold chain solutions provider will deploy Blue Yonder Warehouse Management to meet evolving requirements and support long-term growth.
While traditional supply chains face many challenges, cold chain operators are met with even more complex challenges. When managing goods which are both time and temperature sensitive, speed, efficiency and accuracy are essential to ensure the safety and quality of inventory. To address this, RealCold, a leading cold chain service provider, will deploy Blue Yonder Warehouse Management to digitally transform its warehouse operations to meet the diverse needs of its customers and the increasing demands of the sector. The project will be implemented by Netlogistik, a Blue Yonder partner.
Founded in 2022, RealCold was established to address the shifting trends and unique needs of food processors, retailers, and the food service industry. By leveraging a rapidly growing national network of high-throughput facilities, customer-centric solutions, and a wide range of value-added services, RealCold has quickly become a leading domestic cold chain provider. The company currently operates five facilities in high-consumption markets across the U.S. and plans to open two additional cold storage facilities in early 2025 in Florida and Texas, with another location in New Jersey scheduled for occupancy in Q1 2026.
To support this growth, RealCold sought a proven, scalable and resilient SaaS solution that is configurable to handle the varied complexity of operational warehouse requirements across its core customer segments. The company selected Blue Yonder based on its extensive cold chain experience and innovative, end-to-end software solutions.
With the Blue Yonder solution supported by Netlogistik, RealCold will be able to:
- Achieve faster start-up times for new customer operations through accelerated onboarding and streamlined system integrations.
- Provide visibility into end-to-end warehouse processes to increase accuracy, efficiency and customer service levels.
- Leverage intelligent insights gleaned from robust data analysis to improve productivity and performance.
- Support diverse and evolving requirements through expansive configuration settings and customizable workflows.
