Cold Storage & Warehousing Setup Consulting
End-to-end project consulting for cold storage facilities, frozen food warehouses, and agricultural storage units — from DPR and NHB/NABARD subsidy linkage to commissioning.
Technical & Financial Risks
High Capital Without Subsidy
Cold storage is capital-intensive. Without NHB/NABARD subsidy planning, businesses significantly overpay on effective project cost.
Technical Design Errors
Incorrect refrigeration sizing, poor insulation, and inadequate airflow lead to temperature failures and costly product losses.
Regulatory Approval Delays
Factory license, FSSAI, pollution NOC, and electricity approvals are underestimated by most entrepreneurs.
From Concept to Commissioning
Project Feasibility
Location, catchment area, product mix, capacity, and financial viability assessment.
Technical Design
Cold storage layout, refrigeration specification, insulation design, utility planning.
Subsidy Mapping
Identify NHB, NABARD, MoFPI, and state schemes for your project.
DPR Preparation
Bank and government grade project report for loan and subsidy applications.
Approvals & Licensing
Factory license, FSSAI, pollution NOC, electricity, and local clearances.

A 500 MT unit costs ₹50L–₹1.5Cr depending on location and technology. With NHB subsidy, effective cost reduces by 35–50%. We provide detailed cost estimates during feasibility.
We design for fruits/vegetables (0–4°C), dairy (0–4°C), frozen foods (−18 to −25°C), meat and seafood (−18 to −25°C), and bulk agricultural produce. Multi-chamber designs handle multiple temperature zones.
Yes — controlled atmosphere (CA) storage for fruits, ambient dry warehouses, grain silos, and integrated pack houses for agricultural produce.
8–15 months from feasibility to commissioning including design, approvals, civil construction, and refrigeration installation. DPR and subsidy application adds 2–3 months at the front end.
