Emergent Cold Latin America announced the acquisition of Qualianz, a premier storage and logistics platform with operations in Mexico City, Mexico State, Monterrey, Querétaro and Tijuana.
Co-founded in 2017 by Mario Coronado and Alejandro Gonzalez, Qualianz quickly grew through strategic acquisitions, sophisticated integration capabilities, and organic growth. It now operates a nationwide network of 33 modern cold and dry facilities in key major logistics markets, trade routes, and population centers, comprising more than 194,000 pallet positions, 60 million total cubic feet of capacity, and 800 employees. Qualianz has a diverse customer base across cold and dry segments, driven by its superior service quality, broad offerings, and advanced technology solutions. The Qualianz management team, which has extensive experience across the food, logistics, and financial industries, will join Emergent Cold LatAm and lead its Mexico operations and investment activities.
This transaction represents Emergent Cold LatAm’s second investment in Mexico. In September 2022, the Company acquired Bajo Cero Frigoríficos, located in the Bajío Region with three facilities and 37,000 pallet positions.
