Chicago to host global cold chain expo
USA – The Global Cold Chain Alliance (GCCA) and United Fresh Produce Association (United Fresh) have released a statement announcing the inaugural Global Cold Chain Expo, which will be held on the 20-22 June 2016 at McCormick Place in Chicago. It promises to be a busy period for Chicago as the city is also hosting the ATMOsphere America event on the 16th and 17th.
The Global Cold Chain Expo is conceived as being a one-stop-shop for all cold chain needs with 25,000 square feet of trade show space featuring hundreds of exhibitors from every sector of the cold chain, including material handling, warehousing, construction, supply chain/logistics solutions, and transportation providers.
Co-located with FMI Connect, the International Floriculture Expo, and United Fresh, the Global Cold Chain Expo organisers are hoping to attract more than 15,000 key decision makers from retail, foodservice, processing, production, distribution, logistics, and transportation. Attendees will represent frozen, refrigerated, ambient and fresh operations.
