Summary

The Global Refrigerated Transport Market is valued approximately at USD 18.91 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a robust CAGR of 5.96% over the forecast period 2025-2035. As global food supply chains evolve and cold chains extend their reach across borders, the role of refrigerated transportation has become more pivotal than ever. From farm-fresh produce to temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals, the surge in demand for consistent, efficient, and hygienic cold storage logistics has unlocked new trajectories for market expansion. Refrigerated transport systems—powered by vapor compression and cryogenic technologies—serve as the linchpin ensuring product integrity from point A to point B. Factors such as rising urbanization, changing consumption habits, and stricter safety regulations on perishable goods are converging to accelerate the global reliance on refrigerated freight solutions.
The increasing global trade of perishable food products—particularly chilled meats, seafood, dairy, and frozen ready-to-eat meals—is fueling the market's growth trajectory. As health-conscious consumers gravitate towards fresh and organic food options, the cold chain industry is responding with scalable, smart transportation solutions that maintain precise temperature control. Additionally, the proliferation of online grocery and meal-kit delivery services in urban centers has drastically amplified demand for last-mile refrigerated logistics. Technologies like IoT-enabled sensors, real-time tracking, and data-driven fleet optimization are also revolutionizing operational efficiencies and reducing spoilage costs across the entire cold logistics ecosystem.
North America currently commands a significant share of the refrigerated transport market, buoyed by its sophisticated supply chain networks, expansive grocery retail operations, and high demand for processed and frozen food. Meanwhile, Europe continues to lead on the regulatory front with sustainable cold chain solutions, particularly in Western countries that are promoting low-emission refrigerated fleets. However, it is the Asia Pacific region that is anticipated to record the fastest growth during the forecast period, led by economic expansion in India and China, growing food exports, and rapidly urbanizing populations demanding more varied and higher-quality perishable goods. This burgeoning growth in APAC is supported by robust investments in transportation infrastructure and smart warehousing.
