Challenges Facing the Retail Industry

Pakistan is an attractive retail market in terms of potential growth for temperature controlled cargo. Distributors must pay detailed attention to the hygiene, safety, and quality of their products. However, the cold chain industry is highly capital intensive and faces many challenges, including limited local infrastructure manufacturers and limited technical expertise. Estimates on wastage levels between farms and consumers are as high as 25% for fruit and vegetable produce.
