The Benefits of Stock Consolidation for Chilled & Frozen Produce

At Magnavale, we specialise in temperature-controlled storage and cold chain services. Our strategic positioning includes four locations in the UK, featuring large cold storage warehouses with a combined pallet capacity of approximately 200,000 pallet locations. Our range of ambient, chilled and frozen storage solutions is designed to enhance supply chain efficiency and reduce transportation costs.

With a keen focus on optimising our partners’ supply chains, we aim to eliminate unnecessary complexities within the cold chain. Among our comprehensive cold chain solutions we offer is the consolidation of ambient, chilled and frozen produce.  This consolidation process is particularly beneficial for food manufacturers or retailers with multiple suppliers, as well as those who need to consolidate products from various production sites for distribution to major retailers.

Consolidation entails storing raw materials, intermediate and final products at a centralised temperature-controlled storage facility. This approach brings numerous advantages to food manufacturers, retailers and distributors such as a cost reduction in transportation, minimised logistical challenges and improved stock tracking. Overall, centralising the consolidation process within a cold store significantly enhances operational efficiencies.

We can also provide pallet or tray picking services for retailer dispatch from the consolidated bulk of finished goods.
