Emergent Cold Acquires New Orleans Cold Storage, Expands Portfolio

  Based in New Jersey, Chris Jamroz serves as the executive chairman of STG Logistics, North America’s biggest chain of container freight station facilities. Chris Jamroz is also the executive chairman of Emergent Cold, where he guides a globally networked company that combines integrated transportation and cold service solutions.

In August 2019, Emergent Cold entered the US market through the acquisition of New Orleans Cold Storage (NOCS). Through the deal, vital port facilities spanning New Orleans, Charleston, and Houston were added to the Emergent Cold portfolio.

With its strategic presence on the Gulf of Mexico and Southeast seaboard, NOCS has a track record spanning 23 years. It meets the needs of international food corporations, as well as global food traders and processors, for temperature-controlled import and export facilities.

The acquisition provides Emergent Cold with a blueprint toward developing a regional distribution network that will encompass import/export port locations spanning North America. The CEO of the company described NOCS as perfectly matching Emergent Cold’s objective of meeting the needs of global customers who can benefit from having a unified cold chain across several continents.
