Is Your Deep-Freeze Warehouse fit for the Challenges of Tomorrow?

4 million tons of food - this was the record sales volume achieved by the frozen food industry in 2023. Demand has risen steadily for years, and more and more frozen goods require storage, conveyance, and picking. This is making two significant issues worse.

The shortage of skilled workers and high energy prices are risks in frozen food logistics. In your company too? 

Skills shortage

A survey by the magazine “Logistik Heute” found that many companies are struggling to find skilled workers in logistics. In fact, 85% of them reported this issue. The deep-freeze storage is particularly affected. It is getting harder to find qualified workers for tough jobs in sub-zero temperatures.

High energy costs

A lot of energy is needed to ensure constant low temperatures of down to -30 °C. Refrigeration is therefore one of the biggest cost drivers in deep-freeze logistics and a factor that is difficult to calculate, especially in times of crisis. Energy prices across the board are at a high level - and could rise further in the future.

Case Study: Innnes Takes the Decisive Step Ahead With Automation

“We could have kept the purely manual operation. But we knew that we would no longer be competitive.” This is what Magnús Óli Ólafsson, CEO of Innnes Ltd, says. Innnes Ltd is Iceland's top wholesaler of high-quality food products. So, they decided to build the only high-tech deep-freeze warehouse in Reykjavik. The automated system from SSI SCHAEFER needs far fewer workers than a manual system. It also saves about two-thirds of the space and cuts energy costs significantly.
