Copenhagen - The conversion of a warehouse into a dedicated coldstore marks a new milestone in the longstanding partnership between global dairy producer Arla and Maersk, its key logistics provider. Starting next summer, Arla will utilize one unit of Maersk’s facility in Taulov/Fredericia, Denmark, to store temperature-sensitive dairy products. The retrofit of one unit in the conventional warehouse is based on an initial ten-year contract and highlights Maersk’s flexibility in meeting customer needs wherever they arise.
As a global dairy company owned primarily by the farmers who produce our milk, we continuously seek more cost-effective and efficient logistics solutions. Partnering with Maersk enables us to build integrated solutions that contribute to increase the efficiency and also enhance the resilience of our global supply chain that we would not have in our internal operations.
Maersk will install an integrated storage solution as well as a state-of-the-art cooling system to ensure optimal conditions within the existing facilities. The 9,100 sqm space is part of Denmark’s first BREEAM Excellence certified newbuild which is fully operated by Maersk in Taulov/Fredericia. The new solution will feature two temperature-controlled chambers set at 2°C and 5°C with strict temperature separation. The 5°C area will be fully automated using AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles).
We are honored to build on our partnership with such a global player like Arla enhancing and strengthening their cold chain logistics. The new coldstore in Denmark is another building block in our integrated logistics solution to serve our customer in their total supply chain.
Maersk has supported Arla for over two decades, beginning with ocean transport and expanding to include shipments across Europe and overseas markets such as Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The upcoming coldstore in Taulov is part of a broader integrator setup that includes ocean and air freight, customs services, inland transportation, and soon, cold storage.
Globally, Maersk operates some 20 coldstores and offers tailored cold chain logistics for all types of temperature-sensitive and frozen goods from farm to fork. Earlier this year, Maersk opened a new coldstore in Rotterdam, featuring 35,000 sqm of space and a specialized section for pharmaceuticals, located directly on the Maasvlakte II terminal. Three new Maersk coldstores will be inaugaurated in October in South Africa and India.
